Singapore is one of the top financial centers of the world. The case traces the

in detail the GoS's role in the development of the city state.
It mentions the specific initiatives taken to protect the country from
international downturns and business cycles. The case details the more recent
efforts of the GoS in making Singapore as the center for high-tech services and
industries. The challenges and possible impediments to the growth of Singapore
