MEXICO CITY - Singapore's reputation for competence and integrity is a valuable resource that has currency even across the Pacific Ocean, and is a competitive advantage in a world of growing protectionism and uncertainty, said Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong on Wednesday .
More than two-thirds of the FTA text has been resolved, and Singapore is optimistic that the next round of negotiations slated to take place in Mexico in a few weeks will conclude the process. Earlier in the day, Mr Lee was hosted to lunch by Mexico's Secretary of Foreign Affairs Marcelo Ebrard, together with a group of governors from the states of Querétaro, Durango, Guanajuato, Oaxaca, and San Luis Potosí.
In a ceremony in the afternoon, Mr Lee was also presented with the Distinguished Guest of the City and Mayor Medal by Mexico City mayor Claudia Sheinbaum. He invited Dr Sheinbaum to visit Singapore to attend the World Cities Summit Mayors Forum next year.
