Singapore''''s Engagement with BRI--The Singaporean government is actively bolstering economic cooperation with China

摘要

cqvip:“The Belt and Road Initiative [BRI] can contribute greatly to a peaceful, orderly shift in the global order and support China’s constructive international role commensurate with its size and potential,” uttered by Singapore’s Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong during a five-day visit to Beijing for the second Belt and Road Forum—an international summit led and hosted by Chinese President Xi Jinping. Noting that Singapore had been an “early and strong supporter” of the BRI, Lee asserted that Singapore was well placed to make a “modest contribution” to the BRI. He cited the example of the Chongqing Connectivity Initiative (CCI)—a joint Sino-Singapore project launched in 2015—as an area where Singapore could make a useful contribution to the BRI through improving land and sea trade and transport connectivity.
