The Minister of Singapore is asking the nations to “build bridges” with China to avoid the wrong belief

“It is important to understand that China is at the three -day Asian defense summit, which started on Friday:” It is in the interest of all of us to understand China’s concerns, interests and aspirations, just as it is important for China to understand how the rest of the world looks at China, “Chan said at the three -day Asian defense summit.

“Regardless of whether China is attending the Shangri-La dialogue, we all have to communicate with China in various forums to try to build these bridges so that we do not end up in a position in which either side controls an explanation, error, or controlling each other.”

At the departure of its practice since 2019, Beijing has sent a delegation of the lowest level to the scope attended by the ministers, defense heads and academics from 47 countries.

Chan, who is attending the event as defense minister for the first time after he was sworn on May 23, said on Saturday that the presence of the superpower was lost at a round ministerial table and stressed the importance of dialogue with China to prevent misunderstanding intentions.
