Dear Prime Minister-elect,

                        My heartiest congratulations on your party’s resounding victory at the recently concluded General Elections!

                        I recall our meetings and frank exchange of views since 2006 when I visited Gujarat.  You have always shown a strong resolve to bring economic prosperity to the Indian people.  Gujarat’s economic success and development are testament of your visionary leadership and what you can bring to India.  I am confident that you will lead India to greater heights as Prime Minister, and further build on the excellent ties between our two countries.

                        I wish you every success and look forward to our next meeting.

Yours sincerely,

GOH CHOK TONG
