We were delighted to welcome a delegation from the Communist Party of Viet Nam (CPV) on the sidelines of the inaugural Singapore–Vietnam Strategic Dialogue. 🇸🇬🇻🇳
The Dialogue marks an important milestone for both parties, following the elevation of Singapore–Vietnam relations to a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership in 2025.
PAP Chairman Desmond Lee welcomed Mr Tran Cam Tu, Standing Member of the Secretariat of the CPV Central Committee; Mr Nguyen Duy Ngoc, Member of the Politburo and Head of the Central Organisation Commission; and other members of the CPV delegation.
Minister Josephine Teo and Senior Minister of State Dr Janil Puthucheary also participated in the Dialogue, where both sides reaffirmed the importance of mutual understanding and exchanged insights on party-building.
During the visit, Mr Tran Cam Tu also called on PAP Secretary-General and Prime Minister Lawrence Wong, as well as Central Executive Committee Member and Senior Minister K Shanmugam Sc, reflecting the growing partnership between Singapore and Vietnam.
Assistant Secretary-General Chan Chun Sing brought our guests on a tour of the PAP Tanjong Pagar–Tiong Bahru branch, where activists shared how Meet-the-People Sessions enable us to serve residents directly and better understand concerns on the ground.
Branch Chairs Desmond Choo 朱倍庆, Alex Yeo 楊陞才, Valerie Lee 李乃怡 and Dr Hamid Razak 贺明医生 ஹமீது also engaged our CPV friends during the visit.
Thank you to the CPV delegation for the meaningful exchanges. We look forward to continuing our regular dialogue and deepening the longstanding friendship between Singapore and Vietnam. 🤝
