Singapore's PM to visit India
SINGAPORE (Reuter): Singapore Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong will head a business delegation on a four-day visit to India beginning Jan. 3, the government said yesterday.
Goh has been invited to address a business group in Calcutta, where he will meet Prime Minister P.V. Narasimha Rao and leaders of Marxist-ruled West Bengal state, the Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
Goh will be accompanied by Trade and Industry Minister Yeow Cheow Tong and a 31-member business delegation.
This is Goh's second visit to India in a year. He was the chief guest at the Republic Day parade in New Delhi in January.
Rao visited Singapore in September, during which 12 investment deals worth S$800 million (US$547 million) were concluded.
