In yet another testament to Singapore's kiasu-ism, the city-state has been ranked first in Asia Pacific in this year's Global Talent Competitiveness Index.
Published by business school Insead in collaboration with human resources firm Adecco and the Human Capital Leadership Institute, the index compared over 100 countries in their ability to develop, attract and retain talent.
Singapore placed second in the list, trailing behind top dogs Switzerland, who've retained their seat since last year. Luxembourg came in third, the United States came in fourth while Denmark was fifth.
