新加坡政府决心不让世界经济裘退影响其实现打开高级工业品销路的宏图,而把较多的劳动密集的基础工业留给新兴的发展中的邻国去经营。在这富有雄心的新加坡,显然很有必要讲讲这个基本事实:这些能干的具有进取心的华裔的年青一代过去恐怕是被小看了,可他们一下子把新加坡的地位提高了许多。在亚洲,除了日本,它的平均国民生产总值是最高的,位居香港之上(香港的经济发展也是很不错的),比南朝鲜或台湾省高出好几倍。今天新加坡为来访的西方企业家提供了别具一格的怀旧之所,在这里,他们可以重温那个遥远的六十年代所一度具有的发展经济的自信感。正当西方因失业问题而弄得一筹莫展之际,瑞典勒克梭公司设在新加坡的一家工厂却以赠送彩色电视机一架来招募雇工。这个小小的城市共和国已拥有一批来自马来西亚、印度和斯里兰卡的12万名身强力壮的外籍工人。在某种意义上说,新加坡确实是东南亚的缩影,这不仅是旅游者的观感,而且就新加坡的经济增长和发展而论,也是如此。对于这个地区的经济起飞的南朝鲜、香港、新加坡和中国台湾省,人们已经谈得很多了,却没有充分意识到今天除了上述几个经济上处于领先地位的国家和地区之外,另有四个新加坡的东盟伙伴正紧紧跟上。马来西亚、印尼、泰国以及稍差点儿的菲律宾,它们这几年来持续保持着高度的经济增长率。总共拥有3亿人口的上述8个国家和地区肯定要成为一个重要的经济实体。有必要从较为广泛的范围来考察新加坡的经济发展。这个岛国的专家治国论者现正起劲地谈论着一个经济发展的新时期,他们设法要从劳动密集的工业(纺织品、初级电器装配、原材料加工)转移到使用尖端技术的工业(航空和宇航元件、精密机床、光学仪器、制药工业等等)方面来,以扩大其产品销路。按照一种流行的说法,这就是新加坡的“第二次工业革命”。实际上这也是东南亚的第二次工业革命。新加坡是其中之一。
The Singapore government is determined not to allow the world economy to diminish its ambition of opening up the market for high-grade industrial goods and to leave more labor-intensive basic industries to emerging and developing neighboring countries for business. In this ambitious Singapore, it is obviously necessary to talk about the basic fact that the young and capable Chinese people of this aggressive and ambitious past have probably been underestimated, but they have suddenly raised the status of Singapore a lot. In Asia, with the exception of Japan, its average GNP is the highest among Hong Kong’s (Hong Kong’s economic development is also very good), several times higher than that of South Korea or Taiwan. Singapore today offers visiting Western entrepreneurs a unique nostalgia where they can revisit the sense of confidence that developed the economy in the distant sixties. At a time when the West is making every effort to get out of work, Sweden’s Lockheed Martin plant in Singapore is hiring a color TV set to hire workers. This tiny city republic already has a group of 120,000 able-bodied foreign workers from Malaysia, India and Sri Lanka. In a sense, Singapore is indeed a microcosm of Southeast Asia, not only the perception of tourists, but also in terms of Singapore’s economic growth and development. People in South Korea, Hong Kong, Singapore and Taiwan Province of China, which have taken off economically in this part of the world, have talked a lot about it. They have not fully realized that apart from the above-mentioned economically leading countries and regions, there are also other four ASEAN partners in Singapore are keeping up. Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and the less-favored Philippines, which have enjoyed sustained high rates of economic growth in recent years. The above eight countries and regions, which have a total population of 300 million, are sure to become an important economic entity. It is necessary to examine Singapore’s economic development from a broader perspective. The island State expert-statesmen are now talking vigorously about a new era of economic development that seeks to shift from labor-intensive industries (textiles, primary electrical assembly, raw material processing) to industries using cutting-edge technology (aerospace and aerospace components , Precision machine tools, optical instruments, pharmaceutical industry, etc.) to expand its product sales. According to a popular saying, this is Singapore’s “second industrial revolution.” In fact, this is also the second industrial revolution in Southeast Asia. Singapore is one of them.
