SINGAPORE, Feb. 27 (Xinhua) -- Singapore's business receipts index for the service industries increased 4.8 percent year-on-year in the fourth quarter last year, according to a report released by the Department of Statistics on Tuesday.

Throughout the fourth quarter, the information and communications industry reported a year-on-year increase of 19.0 percent in revenue.

The revenue of the recreation and personal services industry grew by 18.9 percent year-on-year in the fourth quarter, mainly attributed to higher earnings in the gaming and attractions segments.
