Abstract

The electronics companies in Singapore are happy with their suppliers which are mostly local small and medium enterprises. Opportunities abound for the support industry, but they have many problems. The support industry can use this ebullient mood of the buyer to develop their relationship into a mechanism to upgrade and to position themselves to exploit the opportunities provided by an expanding world market for raw materials, parts and services.
