新加坡尚达曼总统在大年初一（2月10日）以主宾身份，出席新加坡中华总商会和通商中国联合举办的“聚商惠民迎金龙”新春团拜时，阐述上述观点。他说：“无论我们将目光投向何处，美国、中国，还是全球，我们都同时面对多重不确定性，全球范围的不确定性组合前所未有。我们必须学会与之共存。这些不确定性不太可能很快解决或消除。但不确定性并不意味没机会。我们必须寻找机会、分散布局，避免集中投资。”“最重要的是，无论身处何处，我们须深化自己的技能并加强新加坡的品牌，别以非黑即白方式看世界应放眼全局避免走极端。”
尚达曼总统指出，在这样不确定的环境中，中华总商会和通商中国扮演的角色越发重要，即协助新加坡企业顺应外部市场，进军海外且茁壮成长。他说：“实际上，国际业务增长是许多新加坡企业发展的主要途径，也将是新加坡繁荣的一个源泉。”
