Synopsis: This is a special episode of The Straits Times' video series The Big Story, hosted by Hairianto Diman and Olivia Quay. Higher wages are inevitable amid surging inflation, and companies here need to find ways of competing other than on low labour costs, said Manpower Minister Tan See Leng in an exclusive interview with The Big Story. Resident employment has surpassed pre-Covid-19 levels by around 4 per cent since December last year and will likely see subdued growth due to the improving unemployment situation, according to advance estimates released by the Ministry of Manpower.

Synopsis: This is a special episode of The Straits Times' video series The Big Story, hosted by Hairianto Diman and Olivia Quay. The Singapore economy posted zero growth in the second quarter this year, compared to the previous three months. According to DBS senior economist Irvin Seah, it means the economy narrowly averted the chance of a technical recession. Meanwhile, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has further tightened its policy stance, making room for a stronger Singapore dollar to douse the impact of rising global prices as it raised inflation forecasts for this year.
