"It is an honour for us to be invited to attend this important event, which underscores the distinctive nature of our relationship with the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy. We both share common objectives with regards to enhancing the leadership pool of our respective societies and developing the skills of our leaders in the area of developing modern cities, future planning and achieving governmental excellence. In addition, we are committed to leverage common trends in urban planning and public policies to achieve sustainable development."
