From Malaysia, where he also attended the East Asia Summit, Modi flew to the neighboring city-state of Singapore.
In Singapore, Modi met Singaporean Prime Minister Lee Hsein Loong and both leaders signed a joint declaration on strategic partnership aimed at improving bilateral relations.
He also met Singaporean President Tony Tan and witnessed the signing of nine accords, apart from addressing the India-Singapore Economic Convention that was attended by CEOs of several companies.
Modi also addressed the Indian Diaspora and said that development was his only task, and pledged to make the Indian tax regime more transparent and predictable. Endit
