Speaking at a press conference at the National Press Centre, PM Wong described the new cabinet as Singapore’s strongest possible team.

Hosting the Singaporean PM, the Vietnamese leaders emphasised the significance of Wong’s official visit, describing it as a key milestone - the first high-level exchange following the establishment of the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership during Party General Secretary To Lam’s official visit to Singapore.

National Assembly (NA) Chairman Tran Thanh Man called on Singapore to assist the Vietnamese NA in building its legislative agenda with a focus on digital transformation, artificial intelligence, and streamlining the administrative system through digitalisation while ensuring benefits for officials.

On the morning of March 26, 2025, at the Presidential Palace, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh and his spouse hosted a welcome ceremony for Prime Minister of the Republic of Singapore Lawrence Wong and his spouse, who are on an official visit to Vietnam from March 25-26.

Singapore was one of the first countries to establish diplomatic relations with the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (now the Socialist Republic of Vietnam) after the signing of the Paris Peace Agreement in January 1973. The two nations also established a Strategic Partnership in September 2013, marking a new chapter in the bilateral ties.

As it takes place just over a week after Vietnam’s Party General Secretary To Lam's trip to Singapore, it is also a step toward implementing the perceptions and agreements reached by the two countries' high-ranking leaders during Lam’s visit, he stated.

National Assembly Chairman Tran Thanh Man met with Singaporean Prime Minister Lawrence Wong on December 2, as part of his official visit to Singapore.

Singapore reported on June 26 that it has seized 6 billion SGD (4.4 billion USD) linked to crime and money laundering since 2019.

The ruling People’s Action Party (PAP) has promised to engage more widely with Singaporeans, including through new channels, to foster two-way dialogue.
