Singapore is not the most important trade or strategic partner of a major country, but it can be one of the most reliable and stable partners.
Foreign Minister Dr. Wiven emphasized the importance of maintaining relations with China and the United States when debating the Foreign Ministry’s budget on Monday (March 3).
He mentioned that my country and the United States cooperate closely in economy, trade and defense, and also maintain close ties with China in economic, trade and civil exchanges; China and the United States are also leaders in many cutting-edge technologies.
“We must be able to continue to work with the United States and China to ensure that our relationship is mutually beneficial,” Weiwen said.
He said that Singapore's ability to maintain influence and credibility between the two major powers depends on its consistent position, transparency and constructive attitude and practices.

“We will not just say what the other party loves to listen to, but adhere to principles, be trustworthy and open-minded. Both countries know that whenever we make a statement, we are by no means obeying someone, but by judgement, we believe that doing so is in our long-term national interests.”
