The population of Singapore its less than 1 % of India’s and China’s population. Singapore has a healthy sex ratio of 970 females for every 1000 males and the average age is 38 years, which is pretty healthy compared to Japan’s 44.5 years but as compared to India’s 25.5 years, it is very high. It is a wrong notion that GDP is one of the most common indicator to understand a countries growth and performance of the country through the years. If you see here the GDP of Singapore compared to other countries is very low but the per capita (i.e. but considering the size of the population) is an actual indicator of the economic conditions. And as you see here Singapore is one of the top ranking nations when it comes to per capita GDP. Now lets go deeper into understanding the formulation of Singapore's economy and which sectors contribute toward its GDP. Being a nation with low resources (which will be explained later), Singapore is dependent on one of its most important growth factor i.e. the Human capital. And so, the contribution for the service sector is high. GDP OF SINGAPORE COMPARED TO OTHER NATIONS

CORRUPTION IN SINGAPORE
The corruption in Singapore is one of the least in the world, most of the countries around it are highly corrupt but Singapore with such a high cultural diversity still has been able to maintain very low corruption rates.
12 [GROWTH MODEL OF SINGAPORE]
Singapore’s History and Structure How did a country with no natural resources, infertile land and high cultural diversity, which is just spread across 63 islands which in total were just about 580sqkm managed to be one of the most advance nations with high GDP and HDI rank? Part of the answer lies in its history and the other part in its structure. Ever since the 14th century the island of Singapore is been important because of its strategic location. The land has for most of its history been under foreign rule of which most recent was the East India company (British) and Japanese. The Residence in the region have seen a lot of hardship and have earned their freedom and so they have a very hardworking and dedicated nature, which combined with the open and free flowing policies of Singapore have given a very strong frame work for the county to prosper. Singapore consists of 63 islands. There are two man-‐made connections to Johor, Malaysia: the Johor–Singapore Causeway in the north, and the Tuas Second Link in the west. Jurong Island, Pulau Tekong, Pulau Ubin and Sentosa are the largest of Singapore's smaller islands. Ongoing land reclamation projects, which have increased Singapore's land area from 581.5 km2 (224.5 sq. mi) in the 1960s to 704 km2 (272 sq. mi.) today; it may grow by another 100 km2 (40 sq. mi) by 2030. Some projects involve merging smaller islands through land reclamation to form larger, more functional islands 5% of Singapore's land is set-‐aside as nature reserves. There are only about 250 acres of farmland remaining in Singapore.
The Growth Model
POLICIES THROUGH THE YEARS Singapore’s economic growth can be classified into four periods:
The first period (1965-‐80) : The government's main policy objectives were to promote growth by attracting foreign direct investment (FDI), create jobs and expand productive capacity (Peebles and Wilson 1996). During this period, Singapore achieved rapid growth and primarily exported textitles,garments and electronics. However, its economy was also affected by the worldwide recession of 1974-‐75, which had been caused by the 1973 oil crisis.
The second period (1980-‐90) was shaped by government policies launched in the late 1970s and early 1980s to restructure the industry by focusing on high-‐tech manufacturing and high value-‐added services. A deep recession began in 1985 which was partly caused by a slump in global demand, especially from the United States (Rigg 1988).
[GROWTH MODEL OF SINGAPORE] 13
The two periods after 1990 were influenced by the government's strategic plan to transform Singapore into a developed nation, which emphasized qualitative development. By this period they were engaged in biotech research, pharmaceuticals, and aerospace engineering.
These two periods, and especially the 2000-‐10 period, were also affected by the accelerated pace of globalization, the rapid penetration of information technology, and increasing turbulence in the world economy. Factors that had a tremendous impact include the Asian financial crisis of 1997-‐98, the global recession caused by the dot.com crash in 2000, the 9/11 terrorist attack in 2001, and the 2008-‐09 global economic crisis.

It was fine tuned later to formulate “A Ring Concept” . The Changi Airfreight Centre (CAC) located at the Northern end of the airport is a 24 hour one stop service centre to airlines, cargo agents, shippers and consignees. The CAC is operated as a Free Trade Zone (FTZ), where cargo is easily moved, consolidated, stored or repacked without the need for documentation or customs duties.

According to DBS Asian Insights Conference Report 2013, as the world’s major financial hubs scramble to prepare themselves for the full internationalisation of China’s currency, Singapore has emerged as a likely venue for increased settlement and issuance of renminbi-‐denominated instruments in the ASEAN region. Singapore will dethrone Switzerland in the next two years as the world's top centre for managing international funds (Rueters), , as a global tax crackdown and tighter regulation weaken the Alpine nation's appeal to investors. It is the world’s fourth largest foreign exchange centre and has very deep US dollar funding capabilities. In addition to the hundreds of multinational corporations that use Singapore as their regional headquarters, the city-‐state also hosts some 4,000 companies from mainland China who use Singapore as a launching pad for their Southeast Asian trade.

WHAT CONTRIBUTED TO THE GROWTH?
• The twin pillars of the Singapore economy are the manufacturing and services
related industries. • The manufacturing sector contributes to about a quarter of the economy, and its
share has been broadly unchanged over the past two decades. The services sectors make up about 67% of GDP, with strong contributions from the fin and bus services sectors.
• The electronics industry accounts for a much larger 42% of total manufacturing output.99% of Pharmaceuticals produced in the country are exported thus giving a value add of almost 100%
HUMAN DEVELOPMENT INDEX The Human Development Index (HDI) is a composite statistic of life expectancy, education, and income indices used to rank countries into four tiers of human development. It was created by the Pakistani economist Mahbub ul Haq and the Indian economist Amartya Sen in 1990 and was published by the United Nations Development Programme.

22 [GROWTH MODEL OF SINGAPORE] THE PORTER MODEL
A model that attempts to explain the competitive advantage some nations or groups have due to certain factors available to them. The Porter Diamond is a model that helps analyze and improve a nation's role in a globally competitive field. The model was developed by Michael Porter, who is recognized as an authority on company strategy and competition; it is a more proactive version of economic theories that quantify comparative advantages for countries or regions. Traditional economic theories cite land, location, natural resources, labor and population as determinants in competitive advantage. The Diamond Model uses a more proactive approach in considering factors such as: -‐The firm strategy, structure and rivalry -‐Demand conditions for products -‐Related supporting industries -‐Factor conditions The Diamond Model demonstrates that countries can become competitive regardless of whether they possess natural factor endowments such as land and natural resources. In the Diamond Model, the role of government is to encourage and push organizations and companies to a more competitive level, thereby increasing performance and ultimately the total combined benefit.
