“The global maritime industry is enjoying excellent growth bolstered by trade booms in Asia – in particular China and India . Geographically, and as a gateway to Asia, Singapore offers numerous advantages to the maritime world. We have reputable shipyards, renowned container operators, a thriving petrochemicals cluster, and a superb range of maritime ancillary services.
My heartiest congratulations to Singapore Maritime Foundation and Seatrade
on the launch of Sea Asia. The MPA supports this partnership
and is confident that the event will facilitate further business growth
in the region and strengthen Singapore ’s position as an all-embracing
international maritime centre.
With Singapore Maritime Foundation’s strong industry links and Seatrade’s experience and expertise, Sea Asia is poised to become a must-attend show. It will be an important platform for Singapore to showcase its wide range of diverse and quality port and maritime services. I invite the maritime world to visit Sea Asia and experience Singapore first-hand as a business partner and to tap the many maritime opportunities in the regional markets.”
