Singapore and China have agreed to work together to decarbonise and digitalise shipping routes between the two countries, with the establishment of a national green and digital shipping corridor.

PM Wong, meanwhile, expressed Singapore’s confidence in China’s overall long-term trajectory and development prospects.

MFA said PM Wong reiterated that Singapore has a clear and consistent “One China” policy and is opposed to Taiwan independence.

Under the Singapore-Tianjin corridor, both sides have started joint research on adopting green methanol, a lower-emissions fuel for ships. With Shandong, one of the focus areas is on the exchange of digital information to facilitate port clearances.
