  1. Makes inferences, supported Award 4m for 1 supported inference and 5m for another up to 6m e.g. Source A tells me that globalisation has a positive impact to Singapore. In the graph I can see the increase in the number of households owning the consumer goods. For example, the number of households owning a personal computer has increased from 20% in 1992 to 47% in 1996.

  2. I can also infer that globalization has brought in a variety of consumer goods which improves the quality of life of Singaporeans. From the graph I can see that there is a variety of consumer goods as a result of trading taking place between Singapore and other countries. The increased usage also shows that there are many of these consumer items in Singapore. Example of these consumer items are microwave ovens, laser/video CD player. [5]  I can also infer that there has been an improvement in the income levels and standard of living. The graph shows that not only essential devises have been on the increase, High end entertainment devices such as VCRs and LCDs have been included as part of the consumer durables. [6]

  3. Useful / Not useful supported with cross referencing with relevant sources Award 4 marks for useful only Award 5 marks for both useful and not useful e.g. Source D is useful in showing the negative effects to Singapore as Source mentions that globalization leads to loss of national identity/ loss of patriotism. Support: The evidence,“The evidence “Is there a sense of loyalty towards; the homeland of these rising number of global citizens?” These are negative issues that are brought about by globalization. Cross referencing to Source C, where the ‘PM is worried about losing local talents’, Many of our best now contribute to other’s economies instead ofreturning to Singapore

  4. No. She is questioning and getting people to think on the possible impacts of globalisation on the society. The evidence is the list of questions given by the Singaporean and suggesting “these are the questions that people would have to confront now….should they wish to preserve cultures and values, as Globalization continues”. Most of the sources do not support her claim. In Source A, it shows that globalisation has had positive impact on Singapore. The percentage of households owning consumer goods has increased for all consumer items.

  5. Reliable/ Not reliable supported with cross referencing with relevant sources e.g. Source E claims that globalization led to the economic development of Singapore. This is supported by, “Former Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew, in 1965, believed that he could build Singapore into a first-world place”, when, “that foreign investors who arrived in the region”. Claim in Source E is reliable when cross referenced to Source A, which shows that, “the number of households owning a personal computer has increased from 20% in 1992 to 47% in 1996”, indicating an economic progress to a developed country status.

  6. .g. Source E claims that globalization through TNCs resulted in the economic development of Singapore. This is supported by, “His vision was to ensure that foreign investors who arrived in the region would find Singapore to be an attractive place to stop and stay”. The claim that TNCs continue their presence in Singapore and contribute to Singapore’s development of Singapore can be challenged through my specific contextual knowledge, as I know that in recent years the manufacturing firms like Seagate have re-located their production plants to other countries because of high labour cost.

  7. Evaluating provenance to determine reliability and purpose e.g. Source is published on the Globalist a pro-globalization online magazine, therefore it cites only the positive aspects of globalization, by citing the Singapore experience, which is only 1 out of the 10 Southeast Asian countries (i.e. the underdeveloped region).
