Reviews

'Ng argues that modern Singapore became a success story with strategic investments in the energy sector. One troubling concern is the implication that the Singapore economic model could be nearing exhaustion. Ng's book is must reading for those concerned with the history of oil, development studies, maritime security, and oil trading, as well as general Singaporean history.' By Benjamin Sovacool, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy
