PHOTO: BLOOMBERG SINGAPORE – President Tharman Shanmugaratnam and Prime Minister Lawrence Wong extended congratulations to newly elected South Korean president Lee Jae-myung on June 5. Mr Lee was elected president in a June 3 snap election, six months to the day after he evaded military cordons to vote against a shock martial law decree imposed by his ousted predecessor. Singapore and the Republic of Korea enjoy substantive and multi-faceted relations, underpinned by robust economic links and strong people-to-people ties, wrote Mr Tharman in his letter. He noted that both countries are 'like-minded partners who cooperate well at multilateral fora and share a similar outlook on key regional and international issues, in particular the need to support free trade, multilateralism, and a rules-based international order'. Mr Tharman said that, with 2025 marking the 50th anniversary of Singapore's diplomatic relations with South Korea, he is confident that these close ties will continue to strengthen with Mr Lee's support and leadership. 'I wish you every success as you assume your new role and take the country forward,' said Mr Tharman, who also extended an invitation to Mr Lee to visit Singapore soon and wished him good health . PM Wong said in his letter that Mr Lee's victory reflected the confidence that the people of South Korea have in his leadership and vision. Also highlighting the close and longstanding friendship that Singapore and South Korea shared, PM Wong noted the strong and multi-faceted cooperation between both countries, including collaboration in new and emerging areas like the digital economy, energy and sustainability, artificial intelligence, start-ups, research and development and food security. 'We are like-minded partners on many regional and international issues, including the importance of a peaceful Korean Peninsula and an open, rules-based international trading system,' said PM Wong. Both countries are set to upgrade relations to a strategic partnership in October, and this also includes timely reviews of the Korea-Singapore Free Trade Agreement and the bilateral Air Services Agreement, said PM Wong, adding that he is looking forward to working with Mr Lee to advance this cooperation. 'I wish you good health and success as you assume office. I look forward to visiting the Republic of Korea later this year to attend the Apec (Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation) Economic Leaders' Meeting, and to make an official visit where we can jointly launch the Republic of Korea-Singapore strategic partnership,' said PM Wong.

Singapore leaders congratulate South Korea's Lee Jae-myung on presidential election victory
SINGAPORE: Singapore Prime Minister Lawrence Wong and President Tharman Shanmugaratnam have written to new South Korean President Lee Jae-myung to congratulate him on his election, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said on Thursday (Jun 5). Mr Lee was elected following a snap poll on Jun 3, six months to the day after he evaded military cordons to vote against a shock martial law decree imposed by his ousted predecessor Yoon Suk Yeol. He won 49.42 per cent of the nearly 35 million votes cast while conservative rival Kim Moon-soo took 41.15 per cent in the polls that brought the highest turnout for a presidential election since 1997. In a letter to Mr Lee on Wednesday, Mr Wong said that his victory reflected the confidence the South Korean people have in his leadership and vision. Singapore and South Korea enjoy a close and longstanding friendship, robust economic ties, and strong and multi-faceted cooperation, said Mr Wong. This includes collaboration in new and emerging areas like the digital economy, energy and sustainability, artificial intelligence, startups, research and development, as well as food security. "We are like-minded partners on many regional and international issues, including the importance of a peaceful Korean Peninsula and an open, rules-based international trading system." The two countries celebrate the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations this year. "To mark this milestone, we are working towards upgrading our relations to a Strategic Partnership in October 2025. This includes timely reviews of the Korea-Singapore Free Trade Agreement and our bilateral Air Services Agreement," he said. Mr Wong said he looked forward to working with Mr Lee to further advance close cooperation between both nations. "I look forward to visiting the Republic of Korea later this year to attend the APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting, and to make an official visit where we can jointly launch the Republic of Korea-Singapore Strategic Partnership. "I wish you good health and success as you assume office," Mr Wong said.
