Dear Prime Minister,
Congratulations on your appointment as Prime Minister of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.
Singapore and Pakistan enjoy friendly bilateral relations underpinned by people-to-people and historical ties. Pakistan was one of the first countries to recognise Singapore soon after our independence in 1965. We commemorated the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations in 2016, and I look forward to further strengthening our bilateral cooperation under your leadership.
I wish you good health and success in your new appointment.
Yours sincerely,
LEE HSIEN LOONG
His Excellency Imran Khan
Prime Minister
Islamic Republic of Pakistan
