What's driving the attention

Interest has grown in U.S. tariffs imposed under former President Trump, especially regarding new 12.

There is heightened attention on newly imposed U.S. tariffs, particularly a 12.5% levy applied to Singapore and other trading partners, justified by allegations of forced labour violations. These measures are part of a broader tariff strategy implemented during the Trump administration, involving 60 trading partners aimed at addressing labor-related concerns.
