Recently, Singapore Prime Minister Lawrence Wong said that Singapore is a country that relies on trade, and trade requires a stable international environment. However, with the current intensification of the confrontation between China and the United States, Singapore will definitely be affected.

What Lawrence Wong said is true. In the past, when China-US relations were good, Singapore would not have faced such a dilemma.

Currently, China is Singapore's largest trading partner, followed by the United States. In terms of security, the United States is the country with the strongest military power, and Singapore must rely on the United States. For this reason, the American fighter jets purchased by Singapore are still kept in the United States, and pilots are also trained in the United States.

It is not easy for Singapore to maintain a good balance between China and the United States. This depends on the financial and political wisdom of the newly appointed Mr. Wong!
