Three times and gone! If Singapore did try to go for being the currency "hub" by convincing the Swiss to exchange their gold for Sing dollars, could the gold not be sold "on the cheap", the profits reaped on Currency appreciation? Would this not lead to Singapore's economy reaping the benefit of being the S.E. Asian nasdaq? Would it not also put the Swiss Banks in line for some preferential red carpet treatment in Singapore's future? If the Swiss banks purchased the SING DOLLARS from the Swiss central bank, set up shop in Singapore, they'd we way ahead in THE S.E. ASIAN FINANCE MARKET. What better team, with the Swiss expertise in GOLD/currency. Ya ,I know hah, gold backed currency, why go backwards when the rest of the world is going in a straight line the other way. Maybe,just maybe, that straight line will turn into a circle! Then who'd be ahead leading the pack! enough, thanks to any readers for taking the time.
