WITH Singapore and the US celebrating 50 years of bilateral relations this year, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong hailed the deep people-to-people links that have helped keep those ties strong all this while.
"The fact that there are so many Singaporeans here in America - living, working, studying, some married here and some are visiting - shows how wide and deep our relations are," he said at a function held at the Singapore Embassy in Washington on Sunday (Monday morning, Singapore time).
