Congress has long been our steadfast partner in strengthening the Singapore-U.S. relationship.

As we celebrate 60 years of diplomatic ties between our countries, the Embassy was delighted to host a spring reception to show our appreciation for the work that goes on in Congress through the dedication of the congressional staffers.

We look forward to continue working closely with our friends and partners on the Hill and building on our wonderful partnership for years to come. 🇸🇬🤝🇺🇸

The Singapore Embassy hosted our American and diplomatic corps friends last week to a wonderful evening of camaraderie and culture to commemorate 60 years of Singapore-U.S. diplomatic relations and 250 years of American independence.

Guests were treated to a preview of Singapore’s art, culture and heritage collections that have been specially curated by the Embassy for this occasion and the city-wide Passport DC: Around the World Embassy Tour.

Singapore has a rich and dynamic arts, architecture and culture scene, which has seen influences from and interactions with the US over the decade.

We look forward to more opportunities to showcase our beautiful ‘City in a Garden’ to our American friends.

Ambassador Lui attended SelectUSA2026 with Enterprise Singapore, the Singapore Business Federation, and more than 30 Singapore companies from diverse sectors including advanced manufacturing, healthcare and biomedical sciences, and emerging technologies.

At the Singapore Reception, which drew close to 300 attendees, Ambassador Lui highlighted the depth and strength of the Singapore-US economic ties. This relationship underpins investments from over 250 Singapore companies across 45 states.

Ambassador Lui also had fruitful meetings with Assistant Secretary of Commerce David Fogel, Maryland Governor Wes Moore, and Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger. They discussed potential areas for collaboration and how we can support Singapore companies’ investments in the various US states.

[Commemorating 60 years of Singapore-US diplomatic relations and the 250th anniversary of American independence]

Singapore Ambassador to the US Lui Tuck Yew and US Ambassador to Singapore Anjani Sinha signed a Memorandum of Cooperation earlier this week for both countries to jointly commemorate these two special milestones. This is one of many occasions this year to celebrate and promote the deep partnership and ties between both countries.

Together, we have made great progress in the past 60 years in many sectors from trade and economics, security and defence, to frontier technologies. We look forward to working with the US to strengthen our ties for the next 60 years and beyond.

Great to see so many familiar faces (and meet new ones!) at our reception for the Singaporean community in Boston last week.

Ambassador and Mrs Lui were delighted to reconnect with Singaporeans across different fields over an evening filled with warmth, lively conversations and camaraderie. It was a wonderful reminder that no matter how far we are from home, the Singapore spirit keeps us closely connected.

Thank you to everyone who joined us. We look forward to many more opportunities to stay in touch.
