SINGAPORE – At least four business missions between Singapore and China will take place over the next three months as travel between the two countries restarts following three disrupted years due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Mr Ang added that, in response to this development, SCCCI is monitoring the situation and considering organising more business missions to China when borders are fully open.Among them is Beijing-based wine importer Colin Li, 35, who is planning a trip in April or May. His business in China took multiple hits in the past three years, with the folding of many restaurants and the collapse of the consumer market as China imposed a strict zero-Covid policy. Then, international shipping costs soared because of the pandemic.In 2023, he has been snared by global inflation.
The marketing executive has been eyeing Singapore as a destination since seeing a short video clip on Douyin – China’s version of TikTok – that featured the Marina Bay skyline more than a year ago. She heard the Republic is “fun, with great food and shopping, but expensive”.
