The Monocle Singapore National Survey is compact and concise, and it covers many significant grounds like business, culture and media with perspective from both inside and out. <\/p>\n<p>We are excited to learn that Totobobo was spotted and mentioned as one of five high potential Singapore brands that can make it globally. We are indeed working in that direction- providing high quality products from Singapore to the world. The other four brands being mentioned are: <a href=\"http:\/\/mycpf.cpf.gov.sg\/CPF\/About-Us\/Intro\/Intro.htm\">Central Provident Fund<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.osim.com\/SG\/category\/vacuum_cleaners.aspx\">Osim iEcologi (innovative Vacuum\/Steamer\/Air purifier)<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/stikfas.com\/\">Stikfas (Action figures)<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.adminservice.gov.sg\/\">Singapore&#8217;s Civil Service<\/a>. From hip toys to government service, the combination seems funny but you would not be too surprised if you are familiar with the unorthodox Monocle approach and have heard that Singapore government run the country like a well organised company.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1133\" style=\"width: 394px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1133\" src=\"http:\/\/totobobo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/Monocle_Singapore_Survey_5_brands-384x1024.webp\" alt=\"5 Brands\/ Monocle Singapore National Survey \" title=\"Monocle_Singapore_Survey_5_brands\" width=\"384\" height=\"1024\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1133\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1133\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">5 Brands\/ Monocle Singapore National Survey <\/p><\/div>\n<p>Monocle is a magazine and Web site founded by Tyler Br\u00fbl\u00e9, a Canadian journalist and entrepreneur.
