We had a wonderful time celebrating Singaporeโ€™s 61st birthday with Singaporeans in Adelaide. ๐Ÿฅณ๐ŸŽ‰

From familiar Singapore delights to catching up with old friends and making new ones, it was a lovely occasion to come together and celebrate what makes Singapore home, even from afar. โค๏ธ๐Ÿค

A big thank you once again to everyone who joined us. Here are some more highlights from the day! ๐Ÿ“ธโœจ

We were delighted to welcome Lord Mayor Dr Jane Lomax-Smith and Councillor Alfredo Cabada as our guests of honour, as they joined in the celebrations alongside our Singaporean community. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ™

Between good food such as nasi lemak and chicken rice and traditional games like chapteh and five stones, the event was a true taste of home for everyone. ๐Ÿฅณ

On 2 September 2026, High Commissioner Anil Nayar received a courtesy call from Tonga High Commissioner to Australia, Mr Curtis Leonard Tu'ihalangingie.

HC Curtis is a familiar friend of the High Commissionโ€™s, having previously served as Tongaโ€™s Acting HC in Canberra. HC Curtis and HC Anil reaffirmed the warm relations between Singapore and Tonga, and discussed how both countries could do more together. As fellow Small Island Developing States (SIDS), Singapore and Tonga share common vulnerabilities and priorities, particularly in addressing the challenges of climate change. HC Anil reaffirmed Singapore's commitment to working with Tonga through practical capacity building and knowledge sharing under the Singapore Cooperation Programme, and the recently-renewed Singapore-Pacific Resilence and Knowledge Sharing (SPARKS) and SIDS of Change packages. ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ด

We wish High Commissioner Curtis every success in his role!

๐Ÿ’ก: Tonga is one of the founding members of the Pacific Islands Forum, of which Singapore has been a Dialogue Partner since January 2022!

On 1 September 2026, the Singapore High Commission welcomed students from the Australian National Universityโ€™s ANU Singapore Students' Association (SSA), ANU PPE Society (PPES), and the ANU Society for the United Nations - ANU SUN for an engaging dialogue on international affairs and diplomatic work. ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ

High Commissioner Anil Nayar and the students had an open and wide-ranging exchange on the rapidly evolving geopolitical landscape, including the challenges and opportunities arising from greater strategic uncertainty in our region and beyond. ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿงญ

The discussion also explored how Singapore and Australia are working to address these challenges together โ€” and how young Australians and Singaporeans can contribute to strengthening our bilateral relationship and building a more resilient, connected and peaceful region. ๐Ÿค๐ŸŒฑ

In an increasingly uncertain world, our people-to-people connections, including education exchanges and engagements, matter more than ever. ๐ŸŽ“๐ŸŒโœจ Our thanks to the SSA for organising the dialogue, and to PPES and ANUSUN for their enthusiastic participation!

๐ŸŒณ : ANUโ€™s main campus is one of the largest urban university campuses in Australia, covering around 145 hectares in the heart of Canberra โ€” including extensive bushland and green spaces.

On 18 August 2026, former Minister for Defence Dr Ng Eng Hen was conferred the Honorary Officer of the Order of Australia by Governor-General Sam Mostyn at a ceremony held at the Government House in Canberra.

The award recognises Dr Ngโ€™s significant role in strengthening bilateral defence relations between Singapore and Australia. Under his leadership as Defence Minister from 2011 to 2025, bilateral defence ties achieved key milestones including enhancing defence cooperation under the Singapore-Australia Comprehensive Strategic Partnership, as well as the signing and ratification of the 2020 Treaty on Military Training and Training Area Development.

To mark the occasion, High Commissioner Anil Nayar hosted Dr Ng to a congratulatory dinner at the Singapore Residence.

Heartiest congratulations, and thank you for your contributions to strengthening Singapore-Australia defence relations, Dr Ng! ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ

On 19 August 2026, High Commissioner Anil Nayar had an introductory meeting with Chargรฉ d'Affaires of the Embassy of the Sultanate of Oman in Australia, Counsellor Saleh Al Rawahi.

HC Anil and CDA Saleh reaffirmed the close relationship between ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฌ and ๐Ÿ‡ด๐Ÿ‡ฒ. As small, trade dependent nations, both Singapore and Oman are navigating an increasingly complex and evolving geopolitical and geoeconomic landscape. Singapore and Oman are like minded partners that cooperate closely in areas including logistics, energy, maritime governance, connectivity, and the digital economy. We look forward to continued discussions with our Omani friends in Canberra.

๐Ÿ’ก: In 2010, then-Sultan Qaboos Bin Said Al Said gifted the of Muscat to Singapore. A replica of a 9th century Arabian ship ๐Ÿšข, the Jewel of Muscat was constructed using planks that were hand-sewn together with coconut fibres ๐Ÿฅฅ, similar to 9th century Arab shipbuilding methods. The Jewel sailed from Oman to Singapore over 5 months, and is now on display at the Singapore Oceanarium.

We wish CDA Saleh every success in his new role in Australia ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ!
