Projects like the Jurong-Southern Economic Zone (JS-SEZ) are also expected to strengthen Singapore's appeal in global supply chain realignments. While Singapore has not been spared from the latest round of US tariffs under former President Donald Trump's “Liberation Day” initiative, its exposure is lower than that of regional peers.   https://sbr.com.sg/economy/news/singapore-gains-edge-fiscal-strength-amid-trade-tensions-report (ICE SINGAPORE)
