Trade and Industry Minister Lim Hng Kiang rebutted the economic policies proposed by the Singapore Democratic Party's (SDP) Tan Jee Say, one of which is to shrink the manufacturing sector.

Mr Lim said manufacturing is important because it creates many synergies and linkages for other industries to grow such as financing and wholesale.

He said it is also important as part of a wider strategy to diversify structure of economy, and cannot be too dependent on services as proposed by the SDP.
