Singapore eyes Thailand Land Bridge as PM Anutin Charnvirakul hosts Chan Chun Sing for talks Thailand’s proposed Land Bridge project drew interest from Singapore during talks between Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul and visiting Singaporean Defence Minister Chan Chun Sing, according to a statement from the Prime Minister’s Office. The meeting, held on Monday at Government House, saw Singapore view the Land Bridge as a strategic logistics link connecting two seas, aimed at reducing transport risks and boosting regional connectivity. The Thai premier said the project would require significant investment and cooperation from the public and private sectors, as well as international partners, to ensure long-term sustainability. Beyond infrastructure, the two sides discussed expanding cooperation across several key sectors. In defence, both countries reaffirmed long-standing ties, including joint exercises such as Cobra Gold, with Thailand continuing to support Singapore’s use of training facilities. Energy cooperation was also highlighted, with both sides exploring collaboration in fuel management, energy trade, and regional power grid connectivity, alongside greater use of renewable energy to strengthen regional energy security. In the aviation sector, Thailand and Singapore discussed developing joint capabilities in aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO), combining Singapore’s technological expertise with Thailand’s geographic and workforce advantages to position the region as a service hub. Food security was another area of focus, with Thailand’s agricultural capacity seen as complementing countries with limited food resources, supporting broader regional stability.
