|September 19, 2025
President Tharman Shanmugarat-nam will be heading to Egypt from Sept 19 to 22 for his first state visit to the Middle East and North Africa.
His visit, at the invitation of Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, will reaffirm Singapore's longstanding relations with the North African country, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) said in a statement on Sept 18. The two countries will mark 60 years of diplomatic ties in 2026.
MFA said Mr Tharman will be accorded a state welcome ceremony at the Al Ittihadiya Palace in Cairo and will call on Mr Sisi, who was the first Egyptian president to make a state visit to Singapore when he came in 2015. Mr Sisi will also host a state banquet in Mr Tharman's honour.
