11. “Engineering is vital to Singapore as it
enters next phase of development. “
-Teo Chee Hean
Engineering has played a major role in Singapore's growth and
transformation and will remain important as the country enters the next
phase of development, said Senior Minister and Coordinating Minister
for National Security Teo Chee Hean on Tuesday (June 18).
Speaking at the launch of an exhibition on engineering at the Science
Centre, Mr Teo also encouraged more young people to pursue a career
as an engineer or scientist..

outlines Singapore’s approach to IoT
At the IoT Asia 2018 Conference, Minister for
Foreign Affairs and Minister-in-Charge of
Smart Nation Dr Vivian Balakrishnan shared
the ideology on Singapore’s route to the
Internet of Things (IoT).
“Technology advances such as artificial intelligence
(AI), machine learning, robotics, big data and
blockchain are influencing the existing values,
shifting profits and wealth and disrupting jobs.”
What our nation will be in the near future?
