According to Mr. Wong, who is also Singapore's Finance Minister, personnel exchanges between the two sides were increasing, with flights between both countries recovering to close to pre-pandemic levels.

The 30-day mutual visa exemption arrangement will also support progress, which can facilitate greater personnel exchanges and strengthen the cornerstone of bilateral relations.

Earlier this year, China resumed 15-day visa-free entry for Singapore citizens, more than three years after such visas were suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
