Senior Minister and Coordinating Minister for National Security Teo Chee Hean is leading a delegation of Singapore political office-holders for the 7th Young Leaders’ Programme (YLP) in Negara Brunei Darussalam. This is the third day of their four-day programme in Brunei, as part of an annual exchange to deepen ties between younger leaders from both countries.

SM Teo and the delegation visited Universiti Teknologi Brunei and Universiti Brunei Darussalam this morning. At Universiti Teknologi Brunei, SM Teo delivered a speech entitled “A Special Partnership for a Brighter Future”, on Singapore-Brunei relations and how both countries can strengthen cooperation to deal with global challenges. The delegation viewed exhibits of student projects at both universities, and interacted with students from Brunei, Malaysia and Singapore via video-conferencing as part of Universiti Brunei Darussalam’s Global Classroom initiative. This was followed by a lunch for the delegation hosted by Acting Minister of Education Datin Seri Paduka Dr Hajah Romaizah binti Haji Mohamad Salleh. (The text of SM Teo’s speech is at
