a. whether the Ministry has assessed the potential impact of the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ) on the competitiveness of our maritime and aviation hubs; and

Reply by Acting Minister for Transport Jeffrey Siow:
1. The Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ) will allow Singapore and Johor to complement each other’s strengths. Companies can benefit from Singapore’s global networks, connectivity and business ecosystem, and Johor’s land and resource advantages. The combined offering presents an attractive value proposition to investors and companies keen to invest in the region, and would also open new opportunities that will strengthen our maritime and aviation hubs.
