04:29 Min

Trade associations and chambers (TACs) play a vital role in helping Singapore and its businesses. How can TACs magnify their roles in rallying industries and guide businesses to overcome and emerge stronger from challenges? How can TACs be enabled to serve their members better? MP Desmond Choo raised these questions in Parliament on Tuesday (Feb 28). Noting that TACs face challenges such as talent shortages and funding, he asked what are the resources that TACs can tap on to strengthen their internal leadership development and training. He also asked if the Ministry of Trade and Industry can consider funding TACs to assist Singaporean businesses in expanding overseas.
