The four areas of focus in this 1994 The Year in Review conference were the international economy, the domestic economy, foreign policy and domestic politics. Can a small nation-state like Singapore be a world player as the old world order crumbles? Should Singaporeans be allowed to invest CPF funds in the region? Does the rising cost of living and staying alive have implications for the way people will vote in the future? Was the outcome of the presidential election a protest at PAP dominance? The Year in Review 1993 poses and deliberates on questions and issues such as these which were prominent in 1993, and makes projections for the year ahead and the longer term prospects of Singapore both at home and in the world arena. Contributors include: Freddy Orchard, Toh Thian Ser, Tan Lian Choo and Walter Woon. Commentators are: Tan Kong Yam, Lee Tsao Yuan, Tommy Thong-Bee Koh and Han Fook Kwang.
