I started serious Investing Journey in Jan 2000 to create wealth through long-term investing and short-term trading; but as from April 2013 my Journey in Investing has changed to create Retirement Income for Life till 85 years old in 2041 for two persons over market cycles of Bull and Bear.

Since 2017 after retiring from full-time job as employee; I am moving towards Investing Nirvana - Freehold Investment Income for Life investing strategy where 100% of investment income from portfolio investment is cashed out to support household expenses i.e. not a single cent of re-investing!

It is 57% (2017 to Aug 2022) to the Land of Investing Nirvana - Freehold Income for Life!

Marine & offshore sector still strong due to rising energy demand: Tan Chuan-Jin

SINGAPORE: Acting Minister for Manpower Tan Chuan-Jin said the marine and offshore industry remains strong due to rising energy demand in the world.

He said the demand is strongest in growing economies such as China.

Last year, the sector contributed over S$16 billion to Singapore's economy.

The number of locals working in the sector grew to 18,000 in December last year - an increase of about 30 per cent from the month 10 years ago.

Mr Tan was speaking at a ceremony to name a vessel by Keppel FELS, an offshore subsidiary of rigbuilding giant Keppel Corp.

The vessel, Seafox 5, will be delivered next month - more than a month ahead of schedule, with an excellent safety record.

Keppel has already received enquiries for similar vessels.


Mr Tan said it's important to build on this to attract investments and business.

"Singapore has benefited from this rising tide. We have grown from a ship repair hub in the 1960s... into a leading global and marine offshore hub with a thriving ecosystem. I think building projects like this, meeting timelines, or being ahead of the timelines, enhance our reputation," said Mr Tan.

The Seafox 5, with a contract value of US$220 million, is the first such vessel to be built in Singapore.

It can withstand harsh conditions and operate up to 65 metres deep.

It'll be used to install foundations for windmill equipment in the North Sea.
