Singapore among world's top digital economies but ranks worst at meeting psychological needs: Survey.

SINGAPORE : Despite widespread utility of digital services across the globe, a range of basic, self-fulfillment and psychological needs are still failing to be met, suggests a recent survey by Dentsu Aegis Network in partnership with Oxford Economics.

The region also saw 67% of respondents globally express the view that not enough is being done to ensure digital technology benefits everyone in society, rather than a select few. This comes even as the region’s respondents continue to embrace digital products and services, with 55% more likely to use an app to hail a taxi compared to last year, versus just 44% globally.
