SINGAPORE – Singapore can be a trusted node for science, technology and innovation amid global challenges, and its nimble regulatory environment allows innovators to develop prototypes quickly, said Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat on Monday.

He added that Singapore can be a place where the best talent around the world gather to do research and foster innovation and entrepreneurship.

Mr Lee noted that the joint communique was comprehensive, covering “a lot of ground” for cooperation. The subjects raised ranged from artificial intelligence and reforms at global bodies such as the United Nations, to issues concerning the developing countries.
“Many issues are comprehensively covered. We also put in principles how to address them, but the specifics (and) the actual substance of the cooperation, I think that progress takes a lot of time in this environment,” he told reporters.
“It's partly because I don’t trust you, you don't trust me so therefore, we can't quite strike a deal. But it's also because I don't want you to have a successful result and so I would rather there not be an outcome … There is some of this dynamic in play,” Mr Lee added.
“In that context, I think we did well to have a communique and to have a meeting where substantial issues were discussed and the views were aired.”
