Chingay Parade 2020 was one of our last major events before COVID-19 brought large gatherings to a halt. One year later, we still can’t hold the usual street parade. But obstacles can also be opportunities to try something new!
I was among 150 guests who watched Chingay 2021, our first-ever Digital Chingay, at the Mediacorp theatre last night. Many more tuned in on TV or via the internet. Chingay Parades of years past may have featured fancy floats and large contingents of performers. But this year’s format was refreshing and original, including more performances by members of the community, and friends from ASEAN! I applaud the People’s Association on a captivating reimagining of the show!
If you missed it, you can rewatch the show here (another benefit of the new format!): https://fb.watch/3NsWE5h_vs/ What did you think of the Digital Chingay? – LHL

We signed the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) today, after a tough slog of 8 years.
The RCEP will be the world’s largest Free Trade Agreement. Members include the 10 ASEAN nations, plus Australia, China, Japan, New Zealand and South Korea. Together, we comprise nearly 30% of the global population and global GDP.
This is a major step forward for our region. At a time when multilateralism is losing ground, and global growth is slowing, the RCEP shows Asian countries’ support for open and connected supply chains, freer trade and closer interdependence. – LHL

Today was Day One of the 37th ASEAN Summit and Related Summits. ASEAN leaders met via video conference at the plenary session, as well as with PRC Premier Li Keqiang, Japanese PM Yoshihide Suga (菅義偉), ROK President Moon Jae-in (문재인 ) and Indian PM Narendra Modi at our respective ASEAN Plus One Summits.
Under Vietnam’s stewardship, ASEAN has helped its members combat the pandemic. We set up a working group to coordinate the regional response, and mechanisms to collaborate with each other.
I announced Singapore’s contribution of US$100,000 to the COVID-19 ASEAN Response Fund, which will help the region to address the impact of the pandemic.
I also took the opportunity to congratulate State Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi on her party’s election win in Myanmar.
Virtual diplomacy may not be ideal, but it enables Singapore to work with friends and neighbours, despite the challenging times. Over this weekend, ASEAN will meet with more dialogue partners. We will explore new ways to work together, to recover and move on in this post-COVID world. – LHL
