In response to queries from the media on Mr Xanana Gusmao's meetings with Singapore leaders, the MFA Spokesman made the following comments:

"At Mr Xanana Gusmao's meeting with PM, Mr Gusmao briefed PM on the situation in East Timor and on East Timor's reconstruction and developmental needs.

Singapore would do what it can within its limited means to assist, especially through Singapore's technical assistance programmes."
