2024年5月8日,时任新加坡贸工部长颜金勇在国会书面答复碧山—大巴窑集选区议员安迪新加坡制造业相对于其他亚洲国家的复苏情况。
以下内容为新加坡眼根据国会英文资料翻译整理:
安迪(碧山--大巴窑集选区议员)先生询问贸工部长:
(a) 导致 2023 年第三季度中型工厂关闭的原因有哪些?
(b) 贸工部能否提供有关新加坡制造业相对于韩国和越南等其他亚洲国家的复苏情况的最新信息?
(c) 制造业在未来一年面临的挑战和前景如何?
颜金勇(时任贸工部长,现任副总理)先生:我们没有具体跟踪工厂关闭的数量。不过,过去五年来,在新加坡建立的制造业实体(包括工厂)多于关闭的工厂。关闭工厂的公司都是由于市场动态发生变化或全球生产战略发生转变。
截至 2024 年第一季度,新加坡的制造业产出比 2019 年疫情前的平均水平高出 16%。这好于韩国和越南同期分别录得的 6.6% 和 5.8%。我们预计,随着库存水平和外部需求恢复正常,我国的制造业今年将实现复苏。
作为先进制造业的关键节点,我们正加强自身竞争力。这包括与企业合作,采用人工智能(AI)和数字化技术来提高生产率,并将投资重点放在绿色经济、人工智能和精准医疗等新增长领域。这与我们“制造业2030的愿景”不谋而合,即把新加坡定位为先进制造业的全球商业、创新和人才中心,从而继续为新加坡人在这一领域创造良好的就业机会。
以下是英文质询内容:
Mr Saktiandi Supaat asked the Minister for Trade and Industry (a) what are the factors which caused closures of mid-sized factories in Q3 2023; (b) whether the Ministry can provide updates on how Singapore's manufacturing sector is recovering relative to other Asian countries such as Korea and Vietnam; and (c) what are the manufacturing sector's challenges and outlook for the year ahead.
Mr Gan Kim Yong: We do not specifically track the number of factory closures. However, over the past five years, more manufacturing entities, including factories, have been established than closed in Singapore. Companies that have closed factories have done so due to changes in market dynamics or shifts in their global production strategy.
As of the first quarter 2024, Singapore's manufacturing output was 16% above its pre-pandemic average in 2019. This was better than the 6.6% and 5.8% recorded by South Korea and Vietnam respectively, over the same period. We expect our manufacturing sector to recover this year as inventory levels and external demand normalise.
We are strengthening our competitiveness as a key node in advanced manufacturing. This includes working with companies to adopt artificial intelligence (AI) and digitalisation to increase productivity and anchor investments in new growth areas, such as the green economy, AI and precision medicine. This aligns with our Manufacturing 2030 vision to position Singapore as a global business, innovation and talent hub for advanced manufacturing so that we can continue to create good jobs for Singaporeans in the sector.
