Key Highlights

Singapore has the largest defense expenditure in the South East Asian region and in 2009, allocated US$7.9 billion for defense. This figure is expected to increase to reach US$11.5 billion by 2015. Defense expenditure is primarily driven by the threat of terrorist organizations such as Jemaah Islamiah, and the countrys focus on the protection of important trade routes, such as the Strait of Singapore and the Strait of Malacca, from the threat of piracy. Singapores army is relatively small, and the country uses technology as a force multiplier, another factor which increases defense expenditure. Singapore is small country, and cannot provide adequate training facilities for armed forces personnel. As such, the country relocates army training facilities to foreign countries, a factor which creates the need to purchase training stations and detachments overseas.

The majority of Singapores defense budget is allocated for capital expenditure, due to the countrys concentration on the acquisition of advanced technology to enhance the capabilities of the relatively small army. The country also makes regular investments in defense research and development in an effort to constantly develop innovative weapons for its armed forces. In 2009, defense expenditure as a percentage of GDP stood at 4.4%, and by 2015, is expected to increase to 4.6%.
