    SINGAPORE and the UK have renewed their bilateral Economic and Business Partnership (EBP), a move that paves the way for greater economic cooperation and new business opportunities in both countries.

    The renewed deal was signed on Tuesday by Singapore's Trade Minister Lim Hng Kiang and the UK's Secretary of State for International Trade Liam Fox. The latter is in town for a three-day official visit that ends on Wednesday.
