Singapore will ally with UP for the success of the Global Investor Summit-2023 to attract investments in the state. Singapore High Commissioner to India, Simon Wong, expressed happiness over his country's alliance with the Yogi Adityanath government.
Taking to twitter, Wong wrote: "Happy to be the first partner country for UP Global Investor Summit-2023 (GIS-23) to be held in January." He added that he was looking forward to the road show in Uttar Pradesh.
Singapore has now become the first partner country of Uttar Pradesh. It may be noted that Wong had paid a visit to Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on June 15 and had expressed his desire to forge stronger ties with Uttar Pradesh for business.
An official spokesperson said that companies from Singapore had made investments to the tune of over USD 250 million. Most of this investment is in the national capital region (NCR) districts of the state. In the recently held groundbreaking ceremony, companies from Singapore pledged investments to the tune of Rs 1,100 crore.
Asserting that UP had emerged as a dream destination for industrial investment in the country, the officials were told to pull up their socks to propel the growth bandwagon to the next level through UP GIS-23.
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has directed officials to roll out a detailed publicity plan for the summit so as to create a global buzz around it through road shows in countries like the UK, USA, Canada, UAE, Sweden, Singapore, the Netherlands, Israel, France, Germany, South Korea, Mauritius, Russia and Australia.
