Strange, all the deep research AI tells me that Singapore will be the biggest winner in Asia due to having the lowest tariffs and FTA. Many companies will shift here. :o

The tariff proposed by Trump is a means to force all exporters to kowtow to the U.S.

"However, he assured that if Singapore stays resolute and united, it will continue to hold its own in what he described as a "troubled world" that is seeing a growing likelihood of a full-blown global trade war."

Seriously, how is staying resolute and united be your only solution ?
Or you are just clueless ?

Those companies moved out of China only to be hit with tariffs again. Really is double whammy. E.g. Vietnam hit with 46% tariff.
