Manufacturing industry: Singapore's major catalyst

Rikvin’s General Manager and Head of Operations Mr. Satish Bakhda explained, “Manufacturing is an aggressive industry, with a projected growth of at least 5% per year. During the first quarter of 2012 alone, the manufacturing industry opened 2,000 jobs. To meet the industry’s escalating demand, Singapore will need to attract high quality workers in such areas as electronics and precision engineering, chemicals and biomedicals, as well as aerospace and marine manufacturing.”

Among the high demand occupations that belong to this group are firmware engineers, electrical engineers, process engineers, design engineers and a number of related specializations.
