Overview

• Lawrence Wong arrived in New Delhi for a Sept 2–4 visit that includes talks with Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sept 4, a call on President Droupadi Murmu, a Rajghat tribute and a closed-door roundtable with Indian business leaders, accompanied by senior Singapore ministers.
• Officials say the two sides are expected to sign five agreements spanning civil aviation, space, shipping, finance and digital innovation, and skill development.
• Modi and Wong will jointly, via video, inaugurate PSA Mumbai’s expanded container terminal at Nhava Sheva, a project backed by more than $1 billion from Singapore’s PSA International.
• The visit follows August’s India–Singapore Ministerial Roundtable that set priorities across six pillars, including advanced manufacturing, digitalisation, connectivity, sustainability, healthcare and skills.
• Both governments are exploring longer-term projects such as an undersea link that could carry electricity and data, exports of green ammonia and hydrogen, and collaboration on small modular reactors, with Singapore remaining a leading source of FDI into India.
