As workers salary has just started to trend higher, MNCs are moving out of Singapore.

All along SG is just a " base " for foreigner investors oversea SEA and Asia market. Their main manufacture plants are in other Asia countries of course due to cheaper rental and workers.

Now is Office they also plan to shift move to cheaper alternative Asia countries. Like Malaysia , Vietnam , Thailand etc to set up their Asia Base.
