ExclusivePrime ministers of Singapore, South Korea to attend this month’s Boao Forum for Asia
The two join a growing string of leaders from developed and regional economies who have visited China this year
The prime ministers of South Korea and Singapore will be among the world leaders attending this month’s Boao Forum for Asia, three sources said, adding to a growing string of leaders from developed economies who have visited China this year.
The annual conference is scheduled to be held in Boao, Hainan province, from March 24 to 27, its organiser announced earlier.
South Korean Prime Minister Kim Min-seok will be following in the footsteps of his country’s president, Lee Jae Myung, who visited China for four days in January amid a revival in bilateral ties.
Other details of the two leaders’ itineraries in China have yet to be confirmed, the sources said.
The annual Boao Forum, inaugurated 25 years ago, is a high-level platform at which political and business leaders can foster regional ties.
