SINGAPORE, Feb 28 (Bernama) -- South Korean President Lee Jae Myung is scheduled to make a three-day state visit to Singapore at the invitation of President Tharman Shanmugaratnam, said the Foreign Ministry (MFA).
Lee will be accompanied by First Lady Kim Hea Kyung, as well as Cabinet ministers and senior officials, during the Sunday to Tuesday (March 1-3) visit.
"President Lee’s visit affirms the strong relations between Singapore and the Republic of Korea (ROK) and provides a timely opportunity for both sides to review the progress made in the Singapore-ROK Strategic Partnership since its establishment in November 2025," MFA said in a statement on Saturday.
According to MFA, Lee will receive a ceremonial welcome and pay a courtesy call on Tharman on Monday, before meeting for lunch hosted by Prime Minister and Finance Minister Lawrence Wong.
Later in the evening, Tharman will host a state banquet in Lee's honour.
"During the visit, Wong and Lee will witness the exchange of several memoranda of understanding to enhance cooperation in the areas of trade, energy security, science and technology, intellectual property, environment, and public safety and security.
"Lee and Kim will have an orchid, the Vanda Lee Jae Myung Kim Hea Kyung, named in their honour," MFA added.
