Singapore aims to bolster its role in the global economy by enhancing its strategic partnership with India, according to Singapore Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry chairman Neil Parekh. Speaking at the inaugural 'Singapore India Forum – The Next Phase,' Parekh highlighted the potential for economic, technological, and geopolitical collaborations.
Singapore Prime Minister Lawrence Wong recently announced the elevation of the India-Singapore partnership to a comprehensive strategic level. Parekh pointed out that this robust relationship has facilitated continuous engagement between both governments and business sectors, resulting in increased trade, investment, and new business opportunities.
Parekh emphasized the importance of understanding India's decentralized governance structure to navigate its market effectively. He believes that localizing strategies will enable Singaporean companies to capitalize on India's rapid digitization and economic reforms, ultimately contributing to the region's food security and wider economic growth.
