India-Singapore Ministerial Roundtable: Strengthening bilateral ties

Hindustan Times  

The close relationship between India and Singapore is founded on strong cultural, commercial, and people-to-people connections, and has a history that dates back a millennium. Singapore sees India as an instrumental player in the region to fight climate change and cooperation between the two on sustainable financing can go a long way to fight climate change. In April 2022, Lawrence Wong, 49, the current finance minister, was chosen as leader of the People's Action Party’s fourth generation team, and named deputy PM, thereby paving the way for him to become Singapore’s next PM, after Lee Hsien Loong. After his visit, Wong, in an interview reiterated how Singapore sees India as a strategically important partner and believes it to play a major role in the ever-evolving regional Asian cooperation infrastructure. With India taking the presidency role for G20 next year, it will play a far more significant leadership role in tackling global issues, like climate change, terrorism, pandemic response, and sustainability; and Wong believes that their collaboration will benefit both the nations as Singapore too, shares a common vision.
