India and Singapore Forge Strategic MoUs in Semiconductors and Digital Tech During PM Modi's Visit

On Wednesday, India and Singapore signed a series of Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) aimed at boosting cooperation in the semiconductor and digital technology sectors. The agreements were signed during a high-profile meeting between India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Singaporean counterpart, Prime Minister Lawrence Wong, in Singapore.

 

Singapore's Ministry of Digital Development and Information and India's Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology signed the first Memorandum of Understanding to collaborate on digital technology. This will make it easier for the two nations to work closely together in the fields of new technologies like super-computing, quantum computing, and artificial intelligence, as well as digital technologies like DPI, cyber-security, and 5G. Additionally, it will make collaboration possible for people who want to retrain or upskill in the digital field.

 

The Ministries of Health and Family Welfare of Singapore and India have signed another Memorandum of Understanding on collaboration in the medical arena. This agreement will foster greater collaboration in the development of human resources within the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries, as well as cooperative efforts on research and innovation in areas of shared interest. Additionally, the deal will support New Delhi's initiatives to advance Indian medical experts in Singapore.

 

Singapore's Ministry of Education and India's Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship signed the final agreement on educational collaboration and skills development. This agreement will supplement the continuing active engagement in skill development and aim to foster tighter cooperation in the areas of technical and vocational education and training.

 

The signing ceremony was attended by top officials and industry leaders from both countries, who lauded the agreements as a testament to the deepening strategic partnership between India and Singapore. The MoUs are expected to pave the way for increased investments, joint research projects, and the exchange of expertise between the two nations.
