“We have launched ambitious projects to improve trade and connectivity, including the RTS Link , and look forward to commencing discussions on a Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone,” Lee wrote in a Facebook post on Wednesday. Singapore and Malaysia in July had also agreed to set up a task force to work out the terms of reference and broad areas of collaboration for a possible Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone. The project will likely be discussed at the Singapore-Malaysia Leaders’ Retreat in October.“More than neighbours, Singapore and Johor are partners linked by generations of friendship and kinship.”
Also present at Tuesday’s dinner at the Istana were Lee’s wife, Ho Ching, Johor Queen Raja Zarith Sofiah, Johor Crown Prince Tunku Ismail Ibrahim and his wife, Che’ Puan Besar Khaleeda, as well as Law and Home Affairs Minister K. Shanmugam and his wife, Seetha Shanmugam.
