“Singapore is a firm believer in India’s immense potential. Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong’s visit to India will reaffirm this. Whether in finance, aviation, or skills development, we are ready to support India in engaging the rest of Asia. Singaporeans take pride in referring to our country as a “little red dot”. Given the depth of India-Singapore cooperation, I would take it one step further. Singapore can be a “little red bindi” — a virtuous point in the mandala of a rising India.”
Lim Thuan Kuan, Singapore’s High Commissioner to India
