KUALA LUMPUR: The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) will need to stay open and be fully implemented if it is to continue achieving its full potential, said Singapore’s Prime Minister Lawrence Wong on Monday (Oct 27).
Speaking at the 5th RCEP Summit held at the 47th Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Summit in Kuala Lumpur, Mr Wong emphasised the importance of regional economic cooperation in times of uncertainty.
“In this uncertain environment, it is more important than ever for our economies to come together, to show that free trade can deliver for our people and bring shared prosperity to our region,” he said.
