Exhibition charts Singapore's economic progress By Vimita Mohandas | Posted: 14 June 2011 2120 hrs SINGAPORE : Some 40 historic mementos will be on display at an exhibition to mark the 50th anniversary of the Economic Development Board (EDB). "Transforming Landscapes, Improving Lives" will be on at the National Museum from Wednesday. The exhibition aims to highlight how Singapore's economy has evolved over the years. It will also provide a glimpse into Singapore's future as a home for global business and innovation. Mosquito coils, joss sticks and wigs - these were the kind of items local factories used to produce. The change came from around the 1960s when Singapore shifted towards industrialisation. The exhibition - divided into three phases - takes visitors on a journey of Singapore's economic progress. The three themes are the Pioneering Spirit, Daring to Dream and Future Ready. "The series of artefacts that you see here on display are artefacts which reflect the different era of economic activities in Singapore. And over the years, from the kind of things that were manufactured in Singapore, show that Singapore's capability in manufacturing and also the different kind of new industries we are trying to build, has improved over the years," said Jayson Goh, chairman of the Organising Committee of the EDB 50th Anniversary. With the help of oral history recordings, visitors can learn how Singapore emerged from the 1985 recession. And a stoic Darth Vadar mask on display <b>...</b>
