Dear Prime Minister-elect Albanese,
On behalf of the Government of Singapore, I congratulate you on leading the Labor Party to victory at Australia’s Federal Election.
I look forward to work with you to continue advancing Singapore-Australia relations. Our countries share longstanding ties, with strong cooperation across the five pillars of our Comprehensive Strategic Partnership – economics and trade, defence and foreign affairs, people-to-people, science and innovation, and digital economy. We have also expanded our cooperation to emerging areas such as the green economy. I look forward to visiting Australia for the annual Singapore-Australia Leaders’ Meeting, to discuss how we can advance our bilateral cooperation and exchange views on regional and global issues.
I wish you good health and every success.
Yours sincerely,
LEE HSIEN LOONG
The Honourable Anthony Albanese MP
Prime Minister-elect
Commonwealth of Australia
