India, Singapore looking at setting up corridor for renewable energy
Singapore’s President Tharman Shanmugaratnam announced that India and Singapore are considering establishing a “renewable energy corridor” and strengthening cooperation in key sectors such as advanced manufacturing and semiconductors.
During his inaugural visit to India as President, Shanmugaratnam also revealed plans to develop a “data corridor” between Gujarat’s GIFT City and Singapore, to enable financial institutions in both nations to securely and reliably exchange data.
On a five-day visit to India, the Singaporean President held separate discussions with President Droupadi Murmu and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, focusing on broadening bilateral relations across various domains. Shanmugaratnam noted that Singapore and India are now on a “new trajectory” of collaboration following the elevation of ties to a comprehensive strategic partnership during Prime Minister Modi’s visit to Singapore in September of the previous year.

Belize George Price Day
Born on 15 January 1919, this year marks George Price Day, which would have been his 105th birthday. In 2021, the Briceño Administration designated the birthday of the Right Honourable George Cadle Price, 15 January, as a national holiday.
George Price Day is an opportunity to reflect on his contributions to Belize’s journey as an independent nation and to honour the values he championed. As the day falls midweek, it provides a unique chance for communities to come together in celebration, despite potential challenges for businesses and work schedules. Numerous activities will occur nationwide to pay tribute to Price’s unwavering dedication to serving others.
