AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

ASEAN Integration Push: Singapore Prime Minister Lawrence Wong wrapped up his first official visit to Dili by announcing an expanded support package to help Timor-Leste integrate and even contribute to ASEAN work, including workshops for officials ahead of Dili’s 2029 chairmanship. Jobs and Skills Link: Wong also said Singapore will open selected sectors and occupations to Timor-Leste workers from 2027, aiming to give Timorese training and experience while meeting Singapore’s manpower needs. Diplomatic Framework: The two governments signed an agreement to set up a regular consultation mechanism between their foreign ministries to coordinate on bilateral, regional and strategic issues. Top Honour for Singapore: Wong received Timor-Leste’s highest honour, the Order of Timor-Leste (Grand Collar), for Singapore’s support for national development and ASEAN accession. Legal Cooperation: Vietnam’s charge d’affaires met Timor-Leste’s justice minister in Dili to discuss cooperation on legal affairs, judicial reform and digital transformation, with Vietnam offering lessons from its own reforms. Shipping Investment: Swire Shipping opened a Dili branch office, saying it will strengthen direct links between Timor-Leste and global markets via its Singapore hub.
