Singapore is ready to work with incoming US President Donald Trump and his administration to enhance bilateral ties and fortify the US partnership in the Asia-Pacific region, Prime Minister Lawrence Wong stated during an official visit to Jakarta. PM Wong expressed optimism about deepening cooperation, recalling Trump’s first term, which included the Trump-Kim Summit in Singapore and the extension of a 1990 bilateral agreement on US military facilities. Trump’s re-election, confirmed after securing key swing states, marks a return to office following a competitive race against Vice President Kamala Harris. PM Wong emphasised America’s role as a vital economic and security partner for South-east Asia, highlighting the longstanding US-Singapore free trade agreement and the significant impact of US investments on regional growth.
