I work in the marketing services industry...

From my understanding, it would be good to get into businesses that would be in direct relation to MICE...cause with the IRs coming up and the strategic location of singapore known for our management skills, I'm confident that Singapore will soon be know as a MICE heaven more so than Hong Kong simply because our hotels are rated more reasonably.

Do let me know if you have more queries, maybe I can help you out or we can chat deeper into this topic =)

Abby113,

I'll have to say, I think your signature says it all if you believe this guy!

He has only made two posts and the other one is just about as bad. Not only that, he writes and sounds like a local a school kid.
