The first major event to be organised under the 110th Anniversary banner was the Charity Golf Tournament held in May, which successfully raised S$150,000 for the President’s Challenge. Subsequently the cheque was presented to Dr Tony Tan Keng Yam, President of the Republic of Singapore, on the occasion of the SCCCISICCI-SMCCI Inter-Chamber Networking Night on July 14. Donations were given to beneficiaries of the President’s Challenge for multi-racial projects including the Yellow Ribbon Fund, in keeping with the theme of Racial Harmony.

In the realm of education, an SCCCF University Scholarship Endowment Fund was established for the first time. Thorough changes to the scholarship system are now put in place, including expanding the scope of funding, ensuring continuity, and opening up opportunities for students to gain exposure to the business environment and learn from business leaders. We chose to hold the inauguration ceremony during the Chamber’s Mid-Autumn Festival celebrations in September. This new SCCCF University Scholarship Endowment Fund involves a donation of $6 million to five local universities, and would make available a total of $15 million after matching with government funds.

The Young Entrepreneurs Network (YEN) presented a signature programme for the 110th anniversary in the form of an EMERGE networking cruise, creating a conducive setting for young Chinese entrepreneurs from the region to participate in an immersive and meaningful learning experience. Before setting sail on the eve of the key 110th Anniversary events, Minister in Prime Minister’s Office Chan

The highlight of the Gala Dinner came when Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong presented the Chamber with a plaque bearing an inscription of the four Chinese characters “聚商惠民”. It referred to the Chamber’s influential role of “Unifying Businesses to Benefit Society”. It also echoed the message in PM Lee’s keynote speech, encouraging the Chamber to move abreast with the times and continue the good work of contributing to the business community and society at large.

Chun Sing held a dialogue with more than 200 young Chinese entrepreneurs hailing from over 10 countries and regions.

Thereafter, at sea, the participants joined an intensive programme of sharing sessions and plenary sessions led by local and regional speakers.

Reinforcing the importance of trade associations in helping to drive industry transformation, the fitting theme for the 4th Trade Association Congress held on September 23 was “Leading Industry Development in the Future Economy”.

This congress brought together some 300 representatives from 64 local trade associations. Emphasising the important role of trade associations in industry transformation, speakers from local trade associations as well as a leading chamber from Germany were invited to share relevant experiences. At the congress, a ceremony was also held to signify the colocation of the 17 trade associations at the new Trade Association Hub in 2017.

The 110th anniversary was celebrated in style with a grand Gala Dinner on September 23, attended by some 300 overseas VIP guests from 16 countries and regions, representing 33 Chinese business organisations. Special arrangements were made for Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, Guest of Honour for this occasion, to meet and mingle with the business leaders from each Chamber or business organisation.

All 1,300 guests viewed a rousing video

Internationalisation and strengthening knowledge from overseas Within the year, endeavours to help members identif y new business opportunities and learn from overseas brought us on several trips not only within Asia but much further afield. For the first trip to Taipei in July, the objective was to explore how Internet of Things (IoT), e-commerce and Smart Retail strategies worked for the Food & Beverage and retail industries. In October, I led a 31-member delegation to Silicon Valley for the first time, the focus being to examine e-commerce business innovation in the

2016 was a year of great significance for the Chamber in many respects.

The entire council and Secretariat staff rallied together in the year-long efforts to celebrate yet another milestone – the 110th year of the Chamber’s founding.

Beginning with the unveiling of the 110th Anniversary logo on the first day of the Lunar New Year, this brought the festivities to an auspicious start, and set the stage for a host of specially curated celebratory events.

...throughout the year, Chamber collaborated with our knowledge partners to organise a series of family business sharing sessions whereby illustrious family businesses were invited to share their experiences and insights on a range of subjects close to the heart of family businesses, including succession, talent attraction, family governance, the importance of family values and transformation of family business.

heart of Silicon Valley’s eco-system. The last trip for the year was to Myanmar, which remains high on the list as an appealing emerging market for our members. It was also the Chamber’s first mission to Myanmar since Htin Kyaw became Myanmar’s first elected civilian President in March. The itinerary for the 36-member delegation included visits to key business agencies and business organisations in Yangon and Mandalay, as well as our counterpart in Myanmar, the Myanmar Chinese Chamber of Commerce (MCCC).

Besides attending a networking dinner organised by the MCCC and an investment briefing on “Yangon’s Economic Outlook”, our Chamber and the MCCC signed a Memorandum of Understanding to spur greater collaboration among members and develop new business oppor tunities. More significantly, both Chambers made meaningful contributions of MMK 20,000,000 (about S$20,000) each to the Yangon Economic Foundation Fund for educational development.

China Affairs took on a targeted focus this year, with Chongqing having been chosen as the locale of the 3rd Singapore-China G2G project. Hence the launch of the latest Singapore Investment Guide 2015/16 was held in Chongqing in June, in conjunction with a seminar on “Chongqing Enterprises Venturing Overseas”. In the following month, the 5th Singapore-China Business Forum under the theme of “Chongqing: Springboard to China’s Western Region” offered participants fresh insights into various business prospects arising from the new joint project in Chongqing.

This also fit in well with the Chamber’s setting up of its second overseas office in Chongqing.

Communication to the government for the business community Throughout the year, the Chamber initiated several surveys to gauge business sentiment and derive insights on topical business issues. Besides the annual pre-Budget, SME and ICT surveys, an additional study to probe the innovation efforts of SMEs was carried out. More than 1,200 businesses participated in our surveys, and their feedback and Chamber’s corresponding recommendations were conveyed to the relevant government authorities for consideration to fine-tune government policies and assistance schemes. In addition, as an NMP, I spoke in Parliament and posed parliamentary questions on a wide range of issues relating to Singapore’s economic restructuring, SME transformation, manpower challenges, the role of trade associations in industry transformation and on government schemes.

Facilitating SMEs’ upgrading and productivity improvement

Championing family businesses

The SME Conference and the Infocomm Commerce Conference (SMEICC), which together make up the Chamber’s most well-established and longest running bilingual conference, was attended by a record number of 6,000 participants in August. Based on the theme of “Smart SMEs: Innovate. Collaborate. Accelerate”, this year the event incorporated a keynote address

by DPM Tharman Shanmugaratnam and ensuing dialogue where the focus was on developing future-ready SMEs. Another first for the SMEICC was the “Innovation Inoculation Tour” where participants were brought to research institutes and enterprises to understand how innovative technologies could be applied in different industries.

Family business is a topic of high relevance and interest to Chamber as many of our members are family businesses facing transition to the next generation. The findings of Chamber’s joint survey with PwC on family businesses were officially released in January 2016 through a seminar well-attended by family business participants. Building on this, throughout the year, Chamber collaborated with our

Building on its reputation of training individuals and enterprises for over three decades, the Chamber’s training subsidiary, the Singapore Chinese Chamber Institute of Business (SCCIOB) continued to develop a comprehensive range of quality training programmes in support of productivity upgrading and lifelong learning. New programmes introduced during the year included an

Driving cultural and community engagement Apart from the business community, the Chamber is also mindful of developing the cultural scene and promoting collective strength of the local community throughout the year. Notably, during the year we came together as a community to lead two markedly different events, both of which were organised by the Chamber for the first time.  Remembering Founding Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew

In March, on the first anniversary of the passing of Founding Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew, the Chamber paid a special tribute to his memory by leading members on a brisk walk.

After completing the route which flagged off from Dhoby Ghaut Green and ended up at the Chamber building, we observed a simple but

 Reaffirming commitments towards National Defence

In mid-year, on July 1, the Chamber organised the SAF Day 2016 Combined Rededication Ceremony for CBD and South Zone for the very first time. It was held at the Chamber’s auditorium. While this ceremony provided employers and NSmen with opportunities to publicly reaffirm their commitment and support towards National Defence and recognise their contributions, it held a special meaning for the Chamber.

On February 24 1968, 48 years ago, the Chamber demonstrated strong support by convening a meeting at our auditorium to raise funds for National Service and the Singapore Armed Forces.  Receiving an accolade for the women’s group

The Chamber’s Career Women’s Group (CWG) received a special acknowledgement this year, having been awarded the “Outstanding Women’s Organizations Award of the Year 2016” by The National Council of Women of Thailand (NCWT) under the royal patronage of Her Majesty the Queen. CWG Chairperson Quek Soo Boon personally received the award in August from Her Royal Highness Princess in Thailand’s Nonthaburi Province.

Acknowledging the contribution of all stakeholders The year has seen a great upsurge in activity with the hosting of several 110th Anniversary projects on top of the many signature events that are held on a regular basis. Even as we take stock of all that we have accomplished during the year, I would like to acknowledge my sincere appreciation to the many stakeholders for their kind support in each and every project. The partnership and involvement of ministries and government agencies, diplomatic missions both in Singapore and abroad, and counterpart business chambers, have proved instrumental in helping us to carry out these projects effectively. I am indebted to my team of council members for devoting so much time, efforts and resources in steering and supporting every Chamber project.

Last but not least, I wish to express my gratitude to the Secretariat staff for their motivation, loyalty and hard work in ensuring the delivery of exceptional value and outcomes for every aspect of the Chamber operations.

In keeping with the new mandate to help SMEs build capability and be future-ready, the SME Centre@SCCCI and its satellite centres enhanced their roles during the year. Over and beyond general business advisory services, business advisors are now equipped to offer more groupbased solutions through workshops and in-depth business facilitation in capability upgrading. At the same time, SME Centre dedicated efforts in targeted sectors of retail and F&B, engaging them in taking up solutions for productivity improvement.

The satellite centre at the HDB Hub in Toa Payoh also spared no efforts in helping heartland micro-enterprises to improve marketing capabilities through its strategic alliance with merchants associations.

A record number of 6,400 individuals were trained during the year under the respective centres of Business Studies, Language Studies and Professional Development. In the area of language training, SCCIOB maintained its edge of being the leading provider for WSQ Business Mandarin courses.

家族企业分享系列（三）

7月27日，本会成功在新加坡 滨华 大酒店举行了第二场分享会。配合总商 会110周年庆，本会邀请两位来自超过 一百年历史的家族企业的领导者分享 心 得。他们是 成立于1916年的华安药 行第三代掌门人董国榮以及圆圃集团 董事翁卓深。分享会重点讨论了吸引人 才、维系家庭价值观与和谐、传承规划 等课 题。两人都认同在家族和谐与业 务发展间取得 平 衡的重要性，及鼓 励 家族企业第一代与第二代之间取得有 效沟通。共有50人出席本次分享会。

中小企业的创新与发展》专项 研究 为了探 讨 我国中小企 业的创新能 力、面临的挑战及所需的援助，以及向 政 府提呈建议以帮助中小企业创新， 本会特别与新加坡国大商学院谢丽燕 博士联合展开了《中小企业的创新与发 展》专项研究。研究共综合了233家企 业的意见，其中99％是中小企业，服务 业商家占70％。研 究 显示只有一半或 少 过一半的中小企业在进行 创新。由 于不 确定投资是否能得到回报，少 于 35%的受访者在过去两年进行 创新活 动。同时，调查也发现中小企业普遍对 创新持 开放态度，但将创新想法 付诸 实践的能力相对较弱。

蔡其生会长于中小企业大会上将《中小企业的创新与发展》专项研究报告呈交予尚达曼副总理作为政策参考。

中小企业意见调查》报告出炉后，蔡其生会长（右二）、刘泰山副会长（右一）、黄山忠副会长（右三）、研究与出版委员会何乃全主席（左二）、 李思亮董事（左一）等接受《联合早报》专访，反映各行业所面对的挑战。

此 外，本会 也 从 受 访 者中选出其 中七家企业 展开个案 研 究，为中小企 业提供真实例子以作参考。本会随 后 在8月17日举办的中小企业大会上将报 告呈交尚达曼副总理作为参考。

2016 中小企业意见调查》 本会从五月中起至七月展开《2016 中小企业意见调查》。708家来自制造 业、建筑业、服务业的企业参与了此项 调查，其中中小企业占96.8％。调查的 主要发现如下： 经营展望：经营成本高昂、竞争激 烈与人力短缺仍是主要 挑战，但有所 缓解。 企业转型与创新：更多企业尝试进 行业务重组、转型，改变经营模式并进 行创新。但是，采用自动化、科技化的 企业比例较去年减少。 人力课 题：多数中小企 业在 逆 市 中不裁 减本 地员工，但招聘员工仍然 是一项长期 挑战，中小企业应转型以 吸引人才。

进军海 外：有意在未 来 三年内进 军海外市场的企业百分比稍微下跌。 在多个国家中，缅甸的巨大 潜能也 越 来越被看好。 政 府援 助：中小企 业 期 望 政 策能 更灵活、亲商，特别是在转型过渡期， 企业的人力需求、土地用途会出现调 整，因此政策、条规需有更大伸缩性， 企业才能灵活应对。 本会在总结报告中，反映了商家诉 求，并向政府提呈四项实质建议： 一、以 更灵 活 的政 策 协 助中小企 业转型和创新，避免按照个别政 府 部 门 所必 须 达 成 的 绩 效 指 标 去 推 动 企 业的转 型；二、让商团更 好地 发 挥 职 能，引领行业转型。政 府应 提 供 财务 援 助，让商团能根 据行业需求推 展相 关的项目，惠及中小企业（特别是传统 行业） ；三、创建全国性的基础设施 和 平台，让中小企 业 服务 供 应商在共享 的平台上处 理 来自政 府机构的订单。 这 有 助 于加 速中小 企 业 采 纳 资 信 科

技方案的进程；四、加强宣导工作，让 中小企 业善用自贸 协定，把 握区域化 带来的商机，特别是亚细安经济共同 体（AEC） 、一带一路、太平洋伙伴关系 协定（TPP）带来的契机。

通过国会发言反映商界心声 研 究与出版部门为本会发 展内部 研 究实 力，为官委 议 员、本会蔡 其生 会长的国会发言及 提问，进行准备工 作并提供有效 支援。蔡会长自2016年 3月受委为国会官委议员后，在国会上 引用本部门进行的《中小企业意 见调 查》、《财政预算案调查报告》等多个 项目的研 究论据和 调查 结果，于国会 上向政府反映商界心声。今年，本会也 在国会设立、修订多项法案之际，征询 商界反馈，并 在国会复会时传达了商 界诉求，包括提呈对修订公积金法案、 设立雇佣纠纷索偿法案、设立新加坡 未来技能局” （SkillsFuture Singapore） 和“ 新 加 坡 劳 动 力 局 ” （ Wo r k f o r c e Singapore）等法案的意见。

会 有 许 多潜 力，科 技、国 际 化，还 有 很 多可 把 潜力最 大化 的空间 。”他也 认 为，新 加 坡 目前 面 对 的 挑 战 是 在 于 如 何 适 当 地 配 对 供 应与 需 求 。虽 然 本 地 研 究 机 构 与大 学 都 在 进 行 许 多 创 新 工 作 ，但 更 具 挑 战 性 的 工 作 是 将 新 技 术 与 中小 企 业 的 实 际 需 求 进 行 配 对 。鉴 于 小 型 企 业 需 要 这 类 的 协 调 方 案 ，他 提 出了相 关 建 议 ： 利用“私人领域的系统融合者”找出中 小企业需要的科 技方案，及综合它们 的需求，然后与研究机构合作，把后者 的科技方案转换成适用于中小企业的 方案。

Research & Publications Committee

Work for the Pre-Budget 2016 Survey was launched in mid-November 2015; it lasted for 7 weeks and gathered the feedback of 331 enterprises and 34 trade associations.

Summing up the feedback, the Chamber put forward four recommendations and released its report to government agencies on January 11: 1. Government to be more nimble, efficient and bold to create a probusiness environment for businesses and SMEs to thrive and drive our economic growth.

2. Set up Cost Review Committee to comprehensively look at major rising costs faced by businesses, such as rental, manpower, utilities, transport costs and government fees. This also includes easing compliance costs through a coordinating government agency, and rental cap on government properties.

3. Develop Future-ready SMEs by providing Pro-SMEs schemes to transform, innovate and help SMEs build track records both locally and abroad. Make schemes on changing business model and innovation easier for SMEs to quality and apply.

4. For manpower issues, support through subsidies for hiring and training of older workers; support industry trade associations to develop skills ladder classification for Levy & Work Pass Renewal; and enable more SMEs to benefit from SkillsFuture.

A number of Chamber’s recommendations were subsequently adopted by the Government in Budget 2016.

The session was moderated by Ng Siew Quan (far right), Asia Pacific Entrepreneurial and Private Clients Leader of PwC Singapore.

SCCCI-PwC Family Business Survey Release and Sharing In 2015, the Chamber embarked on a survey with knowledge partner PwC to conduct an in-depth study on the topic of Family Business Succession. Altogether the survey covered 112 family businesses from a wide spectrum of trades and industries; following nine months of analysis, involving a total of 112 respondents and seven case studies with selected family businesses, the findings were revealed at an event held on January 21 at the Intercontinental Hotel. It was attended by 120 invited guests.

The findings were presented by Ng Siew Quan, Asia Pacific Entrepreneurial and Private Clients Leader, PwC Singapore.

As he went through the report, Mr Ng singled out some interesting results. He drew attention to the clear shift towards greater professionalism in Singapore’s family businesses, and suggested the need to professionalise the family by agreeing on a family constitution which sets out the expectations of the business and its

“rules of engagement”. Where succession planning is concerned, findings show that Singapore’s family businesses tend to be quite open-minded, recruiting from within the family based on merit rather than age or gender.

The survey also showed that commitment and passion (77.1 per cent) were ranked as most important attributes in a potential successor, followed by vision (59.3 per cent) and entrepreneurial flair (47.2 per cent).

The panel which brought insights on family business succession to a deeper level were Thomas Chua, Chairman & Managing Director of Teckwah Industrial Corporation Ltd and President of SCCCI; Paul Loo, Group CEO of Focus Network Agencies (S) Pte Ltd and a council member of SCCCI; Angela Kok, Advisor to Executive Chairman, Teckwah Industrial Corporation Ltd; and Pamela Loo, Business Development Manager, Focus Network Agencies (S) Pte Ltd. The session was moderated by Ng Siew Quan.

Research & Publications Committee Budget 2016 recognised Chamber’s recommendation of helping SMEs via TAs This year’s Budget statement was delivered

by Finance Minister Heng Swee Keat on March 24, and a live telecast was arranged for council members to obtain an overall understanding of the Budget statement.

Following that, the Chamber issued its Budget response to the media. Chamber’s President Thomas Chua said: “We are glad that the government has heard Chamber’s and business feedback on the concerns and challenges in this year’s budget through the short-term measures to help SMEs. In particular, we are glad that the government recognises the key role that trade associations and chambers can play to help SMEs and industries to upgrade and transform. We strongly urge the trade associations, particularly those from the traditional sectors, to be proactive to explore tapping into this (LEAD-Plus) programme.”

Post-Budget Seminar A week after the Budget was released, Chamber held its post-Budget seminar entitled “Budget 2016 Seminar: Getting Ready for the Future Economy” on April 1 at the Exhibition Room. Invited speakers DBS Senior Economist Irvin Seah and PwC Corporate Tax Partner Lennon Lee, committee members of the Research & Publications Committee, shared their insights on what the 2016 Budget meant for businesses, especially in a restructuring economy. Research & Publications Committee Chairman Charles Ho moderated the Question & Answer segment, and Simon Lim, Group Director (Capabilities & Partnership) from SPRING Singapore joined in as one of the panelists. Some 110 participants turned up for a deeper understanding on the new measures unveiled in the Budget, the impact on their businesses, and how they may tap on new or enhanced measures.

Research & Publication Committee Chairman Charles Ho (second from right) presented tokens of appreciation to DBS Senior Economist Irvin Seah (far left), PwC Corporate Tax Partner Lennon Lee (second from left) and Group Director from SPRING Singapore Simon Lim (far right) for their insightful sharing in the post-Budget seminar.

Family Business Sharing Series (One) In conjunction with SCCCI’s 110th Anniversary celebrations, the Chamber partnered UBS to conduct the first in its sharing session series for 2016 on April 15. Speakers were third- and fourthgeneration leaders of their respective businesses, namely Mark Lee, CEO of Sing Lun Holdings and Chia Weng Kaye, Managing Director of Chuen Chong Food Industries. Held at Mandarin Oriental Hotel, they took turns to share on how their family businesses took different pathways of development, with Sing Lun taking the route of a public listing. Mark Lee pointed out that while a public listing may be conducive for financing purposes, it may have an impact on the corporate decisionmaking process. The company needs to juggle shareholders’ expectations of shortterm profitability with the company’s direction to make important decisions for long-term benefits. Both business leaders, however, concurred on the importance of adhering to traditional values, and of

gaining experience in other companies before joining the family business.

Among the topics that were brought up for discussion during the 2-hour sharing session were: resolution of conflicts among family business members; achieving better communication across different generations; considering gender in business succession; pros and cons of public listing; family values and their impact on business; the importance of setting up a family constitution as the family business expands; family concerns (divorce, remarriage, half-brothers and sisters) and their impact on business.

The session was attended by 30 guests belonging to family businesses.

Family Business Sharing Series (Two) The second in the Family Business Succession series jointly organised with UBS was held on July 27 at Marina Mandarin Singapore. In keeping with the

Chamber’s 110th Anniversary, the scions of two century-old family businesses – Chop Wah On and Gardenasia – were invited to share their insights. Guest speakers were Tong Kok Wing, belonging to the third generation of Chop Wah On, a traditional medicated oil company established in 1916; and Kenny Eng, Director of Gardenasia Pte Ltd under the Nyee Phoe Group, a landscape architectural firm with a legacy of over a century.

Talent attraction, family values and harmony and succession planning were amongst the key topics deliberated during the panel discussion. Both of the family business leaders agreed on the importance of reconciling family harmony and business growth, and on having effective communication between business owners of the founding generation and the next generation.

The session was attended by 50 individuals from the family business sector.

Research & Publications Committee SME Survey 2016 The annual SME Survey was carried out from mid-May to July, and polled a total number of 708 respondents from all sectors, including manufacturing, construction and services sectors. SMEs comprised 96.8 per cent of all respondents. These were some of the key survey findings: Business outlook: While business costs, stiff competition in the Singapore market and manpower shortage remain the key challenges, the impact was less marked compared to the previous year.

Restructuring and innovation: More SMEs are also attempting to change their business model in efforts to restructure and innovate. However, there was a significant drop in the percentage of SMEs adopting automation or IT. Rod Lim (middle), owner of Lim Chee Guan Pte Ltd, and Andy Lim (left), Executive Director of JL Family Office, were invited speakers of the third in the family business succession sharing series.

Family Business Sharing Series (Three) The third in the Family Business Succession Sharing Session series was held on September 15 at Pan Pacific Singapore, under the chosen theme of “Family Business Succession and Preserving Wealth for the Next Generation”. Invited speakers were Rod Lim, owner of Lim Chee Guan Pte Ltd, and Andy Lim, Executive Director of JL Family Office.

Rod Lim shared his belief that cultivating the next generation’s interest in family business and reaching consensus through continuous communication were the keys to successful business succession.

The other speaker Andy Lim shared his experience in managing the wealth accumulated from his family business, which mainly involves participation in investment and charities.

SCCCI-NUS Survey Report on Innovation Effort of SMEs The Chamber partnered NUS Business School Assoc Prof Sarah Cheah to undertake a survey from April-June to study the innovation effort of SMEs in

Singapore, understand the challenges and difficulties encountered, identify areas SMEs need help with, propose recommendations on how government schemes could be adjusted to help SMEs innovate, and what specific initiatives could be developed to help SMEs along.

The survey findings were based on a sample size of 233 respondents, of which 99 per cent were SMEs, and 70 per cent came from the services sector. It revealed that only half of SMEs were engaged in innovation efforts. Due to the uncertainty in investment returns, less than 35 per cent had invested in innovation activities in the last two years. At the same time, the survey found that while SMEs were generally open to innovation, they were relatively weak in implementing new ideas.

Case studies were also developed among seven of the respondents, to provide a more in-depth reference and to inspire other SMEs on their innovation journey.

Subsequently, the report findings were presented to DPM Tharman Shanmugaratnam during the 18th SME Conference on August 17.

Manpower: SMEs are retaining their workers in spite of the weak market, but as hiring remains a perpetual challenge, SMEs should restructure their business to attract talent.

Internationalisation: A lower percentage of respondents indicated their intention to venture overseas over the next three years, but there was a surge of interest in the Myanmar market.

Government assistance: SMEs hope the government would exercise more flexibility and be more pro-business in the areas of manpower needs and land use, especially during the process of transforming their business.

In conclusion, the Chamber also included four recommendations to the government: to have a business-focused and flexible policy to facilitate the restructuring and innovation efforts of SMEs; to empower and support trade associations to drive industry development, especially among those from traditional sectors; to create a national-level infrastructure and platform to drive and accelerate SMEs’ IT adoption; and to educate and guide SMEs on how to reap opportunities from new trade platforms, such as the AEC, One Belt, One Road initiative and the proposed TPP.

The annual ICT Survey was conducted on August 17-18 in conjunction with Chamber’s 19th Infocomm Commerce Conference. This survey garnered feedback from 263 respondents and provided insights on the status of SMEs’ ICT adoption and the challenges encountered.

The four major findings were: 1. The top benefits of ICT adoption for business are: enabling wider market access; improving productivity; and building a competitive edge.

Enhancing Chamber’s Image with Quality Publications A New Era – A New Chapter – SCCCI’s 110th Anniversary Publication A commemorative publication A New Era – A New Chapter was specially produced in conjunction with the Chamber’s 110th anniversary celebrations. The publication

comes in two separate books packaged within a box set. A New Era, produced in a concertina format, recounts Chamber’s history and achievements over the last ten years. A New Chapter, produced as a book bound in the traditional Chinese style, features interviews with Minister Chan Chun Sing and other personalities associated with the Chamber. A total of 1,500 copies were printed and presented as souvenirs to distinguished guests who attended the 110th Anniversary Gala Dinner on September 23.

2. Most SMEs use ICT solutions largely for their routine corporate functions.

3. While more SMEs have leveraged on social media and the digital economy, only one-third indicated having effective online strategies.

4. Key challenges to ICT adoption by SMEs are: high cost; lack of resources; and uncertainty about the outcome of ICT spending.

Reflecting Business Concerns in Parliament Research & Publications Department helps the Chamber to build in-house research capabilities and supports President Thomas Chua in reflecting business sentiments and needs through Parliament speeches. In his capacity as Nominated Member of Parliament, a position he assumed since March 2016, Mr Chua reflected business needs at Parliament sittings based on research findings from Pre-Budget Survey, SME Survey and other SCCCI in-house research projects.

This year, feedback from the business community on several government bills related to CPF amendments, establishment of the Employment Claims Tribunal, SkillsFuture Singapore and Workforce Singapore was also sought by SCCCI and reflected during Parliament sittings.

Recounting Chamber’s achievements in the past decade, A New Era – A New Chapter was produced as a commemorative publication in conjunction with Chamber’s 110th anniversary celebrations.

Addressing business needs in meetings with government agencies Dialogue with JTC A dialogue was held with JTC at the JTC Summit on March 1. It began with JTC

giving a presentation on their industrial projects, including JTC Chemicals Hub @ Tuas South, JTC Space @ Tuas, JTC nanoSpace @ Tampines, JTC Food Hub @ Senoko, JTC Furniture Hub @ Sungei Kadut, JTC Logistics Hub @ Gul, and JTC Space @ Pesawat.

Mr Poon said that SPRING Singapore would help local companies to develop in the areas of technology and branding to expand their businesses.

Other items discussed were on SPRING’S support for the SME Centre@SCCCI and the TA Hub.

At the end of the 49th War Memorial Service, Minister Grace Fu launched the #NeverAgain social media movement, an initiative of the Advisory Council on Community Relations in Defence (ACCORD).

49th War Memorial Service The Chamber held the 49th War Memorial Service at the Beach Road Civilian War Memorial on February 15, which is also Singapore’s Total Defence Day. It served as a solemn reminder of that fateful day in 1942 when Singapore fell to the Japanese.

Minister for Culture, Community and Youth Grace Fu was the Guest of Honour.

The ceremony was attended by some 1,000 guests, including members of the diplomatic corps, representatives of the SAF Veterans League, religious advisors, student uniformed groups, primary and secondary school students, and families of the victims.

At the end of the service, Minister Grace Fu launched the #NeverAgain social media movement, an initiative of the Advisory Council on Community Relations in Defence (ACCORD). This ground-up effort was launched to raise awareness of the significance of February 15, inviting all Singaporeans to pledge their commitment to be a resilient people, united in the resolve to never again allow Singapore to fall.

Remembering Lee Kuan Yew: Coming Together, Achieving Together

personal reflections of Mr Lee’s legacy and what the Lee Kuan Yew spirit meant for Singapore’s future.

The Chamber, together with eight other community organisations, namely Association of Muslim Professionals (AMP), Business China, Chinese Development Assistance Council (CDAC), Eurasian Association Singapore, Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre (SCCC), Singapore Federation of Chinese Clan Associations (SFCCA), Singapore Indian Development Association (SINDA) and Yayasan MENDAKI, jointly organised a remembrance event to commemorate the legacy of Founding Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew in building a cohesive, multi-racial society.

After the closing remarks delivered by Chan Chun Sing, Minister, Prime Minister’s Office and Deputy Chairman of People’s Association, all guests joined the chorus to sing “Coming Together, Achieving Together”, composed by the self-help groups about students from different backgrounds learning and progressing together.

More than 1,000 invited guests turned up for the remembrance event held at Stamford Green on March 20. They included leaders from Singapore’s public and private sectors, the business community, council and board members, as well as children and youth representatives from the various community oganisations.

One youth representative from each ethnic community came forward to share

On March 23, the first anniversary of the passing of Founding Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew, our Chamber paid a special tribute to his memory by leading members on a brisk walk.

After the flag-off from Dhoby Ghaut Green at 7.30 am, participants followed a route which passes the Istana Park, up Oxley Rise towards Fort Canning, and passing by National Museum and Singapore Management University before converging at the Finishing Line at the SCCCI Building.

A simple but meaningful remembrance ceremony was held in the auditorium.

Chamber’s President Thomas Chua referred to Founding Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew’s observation of a healthy lifestyle and that the event was held specifically to follow his example in his life and work. He added that Mr Lee had left us with “a most precious legacy, which is the country, system and ideals he has built up together with his comrades.” Hence the best way for us to remember him, said Mr Chua, was “to make this country even better, and to continue celebrating and promoting his legacy.”

After his speech, Mr Chua laid a bouquet in Mr Lee’s memory, all participants took three bows, and a one-minute silence was observed.

The Chamber paid tribute to Founding Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew by organising a brisk-walking activity on the first anniversary of his passing.

The event concluded with a breakfast reception for the 500 participants who took part in the brisk walk.

SAF Day Combined Rededication Ceremony 2016 Organised by the Chamber for the very first time, the SAF Day 2016 Combined Rededication Ceremony for CBD and South Zone was held on July 1 at the Chamber’s auditorium. This annual commemorative event serves to provide employers and NSmen with opportunities to publicly reaffirm their commitment and support towards National Defence and recognise their contributions to the security, survival and independence of Singapore. The ceremony was officiated by Minister for Defence, Dr Ng Eng Hen. Altogether, representatives of 87 participating

companies, trade associations, ministries and government agencies received their Certificates of Appreciation in recognition of their support to the National Defence initiative. During the ceremony, CPT (NS) Benjamin Ow came forward to share his experiences in NS. Thereafter, he led more than 190 NSmen present in the recitation of the SAF Pledge to faithfully and diligently protect Singapore with their lives.

Addressing a crowd of 320 NSmen and guests, Chamber President Thomas Chua said that the SCCCI had pledged its support to National Service from the very beginning. When the first two batches of recruits were enlisted, the Chamber had given them a limited-edition medallion inscribed with 尽忠报国 in Chinese and National Service in English. He also recalled that on February 24 1968, the Chamber had called a meeting at the auditorium to raise funds for National Service and the Singapore Armed Forces. Almost 800 representatives from 382 business entities turned up on that day and donated more than $160,000 on the spot. Later in the same year, the Chamber further helped to raise $1.23 million towards national defence. President Chua said that the Chamber was very pleased to organise the SAF Day Combined Rededication Ceremony 48 years later, in the very same auditorium.

During the SAF Day Combined Rededication Ceremony 2016, CPT (NS) Benjamin Ow led more than 190 NSmen present in the recitation of the SAF Pledge to faithfully and diligently protect Singapore with their lives.

culture, education & community affairs Committee As he took to the rostrum, Officiating Minister Dr Ng Eng Hen quoted from Founding Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew, who had spoken on the SAF at the Temasek Society’s 30th anniversary dinner dialogue in 2012. “From the day we started, I knew that we needed a strong SAF and I believe that still remains today. Without a strong SAF, there is no economic future, there is no security.” Dr Ng said that his late fatherin-law and other members of the founding generation had personally experienced the anguish and subjugation under Japanese Occupation, and even continued to stock up on canned food 20 or 30 years after the war. These experiences shaped the deeply held belief of the importance of having a strong defence to protect our country.

He thus hoped that all Singaporeans would support the SAF with their hearts, encouragement and solidarity.

On special display at the Member’s Lounge were counters put up by the HQ Guards, introducing SAF field rations, and equipment used by NSmen.

18th Annual SME Conference, 19th Infocomm Commerce Conference and SME Expo 2016 Smart SMEs: Innovate. Collaborate.

Accelerate The dynamic shift in economic power and fast-paced developments in technology makes today’s global business landscape increasingly volatile and competitive.

Businesses need to cope with an imminent avalanche of changes, disruptions and challenges. In the midst of this rapidly evolving business environment, it is imperative for SMEs to transform into Smart SMEs to navigate this new world.

Finding resonance from the relevant theme of “Smart SMEs: Innovate. Collaborate.

Accelerate”, the 18th Annual SME Conference, 19th Infocomm Commerce Conference and SME Expo 2016 gathered a record number of 6,000 participants at Suntec Convention Centre on August 17-18. They gained valuable insights from more than 60 entrepreneurs, senior

management personnel, academics, current and next-generation business leaders at this most well-established and longest running bilingual conference organised by the SCCCI.

Keynote address and dialogue with DPM Tharman Shanmugaratnam This year’s edition of the SMEICC incorporated a special keynote address

by DPM Tharman Shanmugaratnam. Some salient messages were communicated during DPM Tharman’s keynote address and the dialogue that ensued on Futureready SMEs, an integral part of the programme. Han Fook Kwang, Editor at Large of The Straits Times, moderated the dialogue with panelists Yeo Hiang Meng, President of The Federation of Merchants’ Associations; Andrew Tjioe, President of the Restaurant Association of Singapore; and Ernie Koh, President of the Singapore Furniture Industries Council.

Deepening of coordination role for effective matching Reassuring everyone that there is still ample potential left in our economy, DPM stressed the need to focus on quality, deep skills, and on creating

fulfilling jobs for everyone. There is a lot of potential left in the economy and in society if we maximise the potential of our people, maximise the potential of our technology, and maximise the potential of internationalisation. He also maintained that the basic challenge in Singapore is not whether we have the schemes for SMEs in place, but how to match supply and demand. While there is much innovation taking place in the research institutes and universities, the more challenging task is how to match demand from SMEs to the supply of new technologies. Recognising that small companies need coordination, DPM outlined the approach. Firstly, using private sector systems integrators to work with the SMEs, find out their needs and demands, aggregate demand, and then work with the research institutions to translate the solutions in a way relevant to the SMEs.

Innovative solutions for industry applications

Trade Association Hub

A new element of this year’s SMEICC was the Innovation Inoculation Tour to 11 research institutes and enterprises, enabling conference participants to get a ground feel of the available innovative solutions applicable to industry. On August 19, groups of participants gathered at the following centres: A*STAR Data Storage Institute (DSI), Fraunhofer IDM@ NTU, Greendot Café, SIRS Retail Innovation Centre for Enterprise, TDC@Central ITE, 3M Customer Technical Centre, DHL Asia Pacific Innovation Center (APIC), Hessed & Emet, NUS Advanced Robotics Centre, Rolls-Royce Seletar Campus, and Singtel Innovation Centre.

As Singapore undergoes economic restructuring, one key focus of the Chamber is to facilitate the development of the trade associations under its membership network, equipping them with the capabilities to render assistance to their members and to drive industry transformation. Taking the lead from the Chamber, JTC identified Jurong Town Hall for the development of the Trade Association (TA) Hub, which would see trade associations and chambers (TACs) co-located under one roof to promote industry upgrading and cross-industry collaboration, and reduce operating costs by sharing facilities. Additionally, the Chamber will provide Shared Secretariat Services as a value-added benefit to help

TACs overcome their current manpower challenges, given their limited resources in running their own Secretariat.

To date, the Chamber’s Secretariat, together with 20 TAs, will be moving on board the TA Hub after the first quarter of 2017. It is hoped that through the TA Hub and the Chamber’s assistance, it would promote more efficient networking amongst TACs and catalyse more crossindustry collaborations amongst TACs. TACs in complementary industries can then come together to develop mutually beneficial strategies for the sectors, pooling resources to organise events such as ministerial dialogues, overseas business missions, and conduct training programmes for upgrading and continuous development.

SCCCI organised a tour to TDC@Central ITE on August 19, in addition to 10 other research institutes and enterprises.

SME Centre@sccci pte ltd Key Highlights A Change in Focus SME Centre@SCCCI (“Main Centre”) and its Satellite Centres located at Central Toa Payoh and Ang Mo Kio (“Satellite Centre), have embarked on a transformation journey since the beginning of 2016 to realign its service offerings to the SMEs (Small and Medium Enterprises) in tandem with the government’s new emphasis to help SMEs build capability and be future-ready.

The Centre’s roles are hence enhanced to provide business facilitation in capability upgrading and deepening engagement sharing on group-based solutions and upgrading initiatives. This new mandate is expected to raise the service level of the Centre over and above its existing core in the provision of general business advisory and grant consultation.

The change consists of a scaling-up effort to encourage the adoption of groupbased solutions for business sustainability.

In meeting this new challenge, the Centre’s business advisors have undergone an intensive competency-based training programme and equipped with the knowledge to use various self-help toolkits, diagnostic assessment framework and checklists to help businesses uncover their own strengths and needs before embarking on solutions to strengthen their businesses.

The Satellite Centres located at the CDC (Community Development Councils) offices will also go beyond offering business advisory to help the heartland enterprises adopt simple solutions and change in mindsets in coping with rising manpower and rental issues.

Activities in 2016 Capability Workshops SMEs continue to face keen competition and manpower issues amid challenges such as sluggish global economic outlook, ageing population and structural change in Singapore’s competitive landscape. In response to this, the Centre has put in

concerted efforts to structure and offer a full range of capability workshops in areas such as developing marketing strategy, formulating business plans, becoming a digital enterprise, understanding various funding options, cross-border expansion, branding, digital transformation, talent management, applying productivity toolkits like 5S, 7W, workflow redesign, and performing financial analysis to help businesses improve their operations.

the Centre has incorporated a capability assessment session with structured questions to help the SMEs prioritise their needs in addition to the usual grant consultation session. The Centre collaborated with SPRING Singapore to run four CDG (Capability Development Grant) clinics, enabling interested SMEs to meet the experts for consultation on the feasibility of their projects under the support of CDG.

In 2016, the Centre organised 39 events including capability workshops, attended by more than 880 SMEs. The major capability workshops included “Develop your Training & Talent Roadmap for Growth” in March; “Financing Options for SMEs in Turbulent Times”, “No More Business-As-Usual” and “Fund Raising for Growth” in June; “Creating a Digital Enterprise”, “Equity & Debt Funding for SMEs” and “Develop Online Presence To Drive Your Business” in September; and “Social Media & HR Solutions for Talent Acquisition”, “Creating a Lean & Digital Enterprise” and “Cash Flow & Financial Benchmarking” in November.

Approximately 3,800 advisory cases were recorded in 2016, a decline of about 9 per cent compared to 2015. The slowdown was partly attributed to the restructuring of the Centre to pave way for more groupbased engagement via workshops or focus-group meetings and uptake of projects.

Group-Based Solutions The Centre introduced two GroupDiagnosis workshops in Marketing and Capability Assessment based on Business Excellence Framework to enable a group of SMEs to share their issues and work out solutions. This programme was offered in addition to the one-toone business diagnostic services which the Centre offered in the past to help companies identify business strengths and weaknesses and develop a roadmap for improvement.

The Centre has also begun to dedicate efforts in engaging retail and F&B businesses to take up solutions for productivity improvement. Targeting these two sectors, regular solution-based workshops sharing on business challenges, business profitability benchmarks and diagnostic assessments were arranged to encourage uptake of group-based solutions by trade or by locality.

It also organised workshops on “Employment Act Changes” with MOM and Singtel to help micro-enterprises understand the employment regulations and relevant automation package to improve HR processes and simplify payslip and compliance to MOM’s requirements.

The major capability workshops include “Developing Your Roadmap for Overseas Expansion“ in May, “Building Branding & Marketing Capabilities for Growth” in June, “Marketing 101 & Mobile Apps Workshop” in July, “Innovation In Marketing” in September, and “Marketing & Strategy for Retail Digitisation” in October.

Keeping ahead of Changes through Skills Training Introducing a new learning experience through an e-Learning Portal In June 2016, SCCIOB set up an e-Learning Portal to facilitate and enhance our students’ learning experience by means of blended learning.
