Prime Minister Narendra Modi today met his Singaporean counterpart Lee Hsien Loong and discussed ways to enhance bilateral cooperation in areas like trade and investment, connectivity, innovation and technology. The two leaders also exchanged views to strengthen bilateral relations and explored further cooperation in the flagship initiatives of the government. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will have a number of engagements in his tightly packed schedule on day 2 of his Singapore visit.
Later in the day, Prime Minister Modi will deliver the keynote address of the Shangri-La Dialogue, which will be the first time an Indian Prime Minister will address the event.
PM Modi arrived in Singapore on the last leg of his three-nation tour on Thursday and addressed the Indian diaspora at a Business and Community Event at Marina Bay Sands Convention Centre. "When India opened up to the world and turned to the East, Singapore became a partner and a bridge between India and ASEAN. Political relations between India and Singapore are among the warmest and closest. There are no contests or claims, or doubts," PM Modi said at the event.
Before Singapore, Prime Minister visited Indonesia and Malaysia in a bid to enhance India's relations and engagements with the three countries, who are members of the ASEAN.
