ETP Report Card – Improved Results In The Fourth Year, More Efforts Needed To Achieve A High Income Nation By 2020 The Prime Minister unveiled on 28 April the annual report cards on the Economic Transformation Programme (ETP), which achieved a commendable set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). The overall achievement rate for its combined 12 National Key Economic Areas (NKEAs) was 110% in 2014. The achievement rate was higher than the 102% achieved in 2013 but was lower than that of 118% recorded in 2012 and 123% in 2011, with one out of 12 NKEAs narrowly missing its KPI. This suggests that the ETP is overcoming the setback it faced in 2013, responding with the improvement in KPI achievements for 2014. Economist:  Peck Boon Soon  | +603 9280 2163
