Vietnamese President To Lam in Singapore for four-day state visit
The Straits Times
|May 29, 2026
Vietnamese President To Lam arrived in Singapore on May 28 for a state visit as part of his first tour of ASEAN countries since becoming head of state.
The four-day visit at the invitation of President Tharman Shanmugaratnam affirms the strong and multifaceted relationship between Singapore and Vietnam, said the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) in a statement.
The two countries had upgraded their ties to a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership in March 2025, during Mr Lam’s official visit to Singapore as the general secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam.
In 2025, Vietnam was Singapore’s 10th largest trading partner with bilateral trade in goods reaching $40 billion, and in 2024, Singapore was Vietnam’s largest investor with foreign direct investment of nearly US$10.2 billion (S$13.1 billion).
