    THE southwestern Chinese city of Chongqing is an "ideal place" for Singapore's third government-to-government project with China, said Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong on Sunday.

    He was in the busy metropolis over the weekend as part of his four-day visit to China. This was his first trip to the city since the launch of the project - the Chongqing Connectivity Initiative (CCI) - last November.
