In the company of several local officials including Wu Qingwen, secretary of SIP Party Working Committee, Mr. Lui Tuck Yew and his fellows first had a tour around SIP Exhibition Center where they gained a holistic picture of SIP’s achievements since its inception in 1994. Mr. Lui Tuck Yew gave high praise for SIP’s innovative application of experience borrowed from Singapore in driving local economic and social development.
