    "That's going to affect us. It can easily happen."

    Singapore's economic output contracted by 6.5 percent in the second quarter as global electronics demand slumped, according to official data.

    Export-dependent Singapore was the first Asian economy to suffer negative growth during the last global downturn in 2008 but also led the recovery with a strong growth rebound in 2010.

    The crisis started in Greece and is now fuelled by fears that Spain or Italy might default on their debt and possibly spark a break-up of the currency shared by 17 countries.
