Intel Corp. said it will close its Singapore plant to move manufacturing closer to its customers. About 300 workers will lose their jobs, the Santa Clara, Calif., computer chip maker said. Intel said it hopes to cut costs by moving the manufacturing of circuit boards and systems built at the plant to Oregon and Ireland, where the products will be closer to the companies that purchase them. Intel has 24,000 employees worldwide.
