Singapore, Australia expand cooperation under CSP 2.0

The partnership outlines a ten-year framework across five key pillars.

Singapore’s Prime Minister Lawrence Wong and Australia’s Prime Minister Anthony Albanese announced the upgrade of the Singapore-Australia Comprehensive Strategic Partnership (CSP 2.0) at the 10th Singapore-Australia Annual Leaders’ Meeting in Canberra.

CSP 2.0 outlines a ten-year framework to enhance bilateral cooperation across five key pillars: contributing to peace and stability, connecting the two economies, transitioning to net zero, forging new frontiers, and deepening friendships and capabilities.

According to Singapore’s Minister for Manpower and Minister-in-charge of Energy and Science & Technology, Tan See Leng, the partnership strengthens collaboration in economic and supply chain resilience, energy transition, and trade and investment facilitation.

In 2024, bilateral trade between the two countries reached $30.3b. Meanwhile, Singapore is the sixth largest foreign investor in Australia, with investments spanning sectors like real estate, infrastructure, and energy.

“These initiatives reflect our shared commitment to addressing global challenges and seizing opportunities for sustainable growth,” Tan added.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
