As the world learns to live with Covid-19, it must first build the resilience to overcome the grave social and economic impact wrought by the pandemic thus far.
And this is a task that Asian and European countries, in partnership, are well positioned to take on, said Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong yesterday.
“For instance, we can facilitate the sharing of knowledge and expertise, both in the public and private spheres,” he said. “We should also work closely to fully restore supply chains and reopen international travels in a safe manner.”
PM Lee was speaking at the biennial Asia-Europe Meeting (Asem) summit, held virtually this year after it was called off last year due to the coronavirus.
He pointed to how Singapore and its partners are taking steps to reconnect with the rest of the world, by reopening borders and restoring cross-border activities safely, based on scientific data.
