Kia Ora,
It has been a fruitful week with Prime Minister Christopher Luxon in Singapore, during which we had the opportunity to engage with many of our Chamber sponsors and partners across various events. This week was a great example of what we as a chamber set out to achieve- Connect our community, Promote New Zealand, its businesses and our amazing partners.
We extend our sincere gratitude to the New Zealand Trade and Enterprise, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Tourism New Zealand for their unwavering support and tireless efforts in including our Chamber sponsors and esteemed members in their initiatives.
Regards, Tahsha Pratt
Executive Director New Zealand Chamber of Commerce, Singapore |

| New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon was in Singapore on an official visit from April 14 to 16.
In his first trip to Singapore as prime minister since taking office in November 2023, Mr Luxon received an official welcome at the Istana on April 15 and had a new orchid hybrid named in his honour.
“Prime Minister Luxon’s visit reaffirms the excellent and longstanding relations between Singapore and New Zealand, underpinned by the Enhanced Partnership established in 2019,” said MFA.
The partnership, which marks its fifth anniversary in 2024, is meant to pave the way for the countries to intensify collaboration in trade and economics; defence and security; science, technology and innovation; climate change and sustainability; and boost people-to-people links. |
