With projection of Singapore's GDP possibly only seeing a positive growth in 2011-12 baring no further Lehman-scale fiasco, what pragmatic measures should the Singapore business community adopt in order to not only survive what has been labeled as the worst economic times in history, but also emerge stronger and better poised to ride on the anticipated upturn of the economy when it surely comes.
