SINGAPORE: Singapore’s foreign policy approach is to have many best friends, including the US, China and Europe, and the city state does not want a world where it can have only one friend, said Prime Minister Lawrence Wong at a dialogue after he delivered the 14th S. Rajaratnam Lecture on Wednesday (April 16).

In a transcript released by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Wong answered questions that ranged from managing relations with the US and China, to the role Singaporeans can play in the nation’s foreign policy.
