Earlier today, PM Modi shared in a post on X about how he was looking forward to the meetings in Singapore, aimed a boosting the friendship between both the countries.
“Landed in Singapore. Looking forward to the various meetings aimed at boosting the India-Singapore friendship. India’s reforms and the talent of our Yuva Shakti makes our nation an ideal investment destination. We also look forward to closer cultural ties,” he wrote.
PM Modi’s two-day visit is aimed at boosting India-Singapore friendship, deepening ‘strategic partnership’ and attracting investment from the Southeast Asian country. During his visit, which followed after an invitation from his Singaporean counterpart Lawrence Wong, PM Modi will connect with three generations of Singapore’s leadership, officials in New Delhi said.
This is PM Modi’s fifth official trip to Singapore. Modi, who last visited Singapore in 2018, is accompanied by Minister of External Affairs S Jaishankar, National Security Advisor Ajit Doval and other government officials. He had arrived in Singapore on September 3 after concluding his Brunei visit, which was the first bilateral visit by an Indian PM.
