An inter-industry study of the Singapore economy, 1967

Abstract

This thesis is essentially a study in applied economics. It represents the first attempt to construct an inter-industry model of the Singapore economy and the subsequent use of the model for analysis and projection of economic structure. The application of inter-industry techniques to a study of the Singapore economy has, in turn, suggested the formulation of a general model with which to describe the process of economic growth and structural transformation in the Singapore economy since political independence in 1959.
