On Top of Our Game 60
We Strive to be on Par with the Best
We Strive to be on Par with the Best
Since we were established as a statutory board in 2005, CCS has evolved to become a competent
and professional agency on par with the best competition regulators in the world. Our international
relations and co-operation with overseas competition authorities and international competition
networks, manifested through various visits, meetings, conferences and joint events with other
regulators, are part of our efforts to profile Singapore’s competition regime and strengthen our links
with other competition authorities and networks.
In recent years CCS has been stepping up on our work and increasingly showing our full potential.
A glance at the milestones we have passed shows how far CCS has come since our inception.
