INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Singaporean Prime Minister Lawrence Wong will visit China next week, on a trip that is expected to give Beijing a chance to promote itself
as a reliable partner for Southeast Asian countries and a defender of multilateralism.
China will also be keen to reassure Singapore that
the Chinese economy is “back on track” as it gears up for a trade war with the United States, according to analysts.
It will be Wong’s
first trip to China since becoming prime minister in May 2024
