ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: It’s wonderful to be here in Singapore. And I thank Foreign Minister Balakrishnan for the warm welcome, once again, back to Singapore. Australia and Singapore are strategically aligned. We share values and we share a relationship of trust between each other. And that is why it’s so important that at difficult times in the world we can rely upon each other. We provide about 32 per cent of LNG to Singapore. Singapore provides about 26 per cent of refined fuel for Australia. This is an important relationship at a time where fuel security is on the agenda, right around the globe due to the conflict in the Middle East. This relationship is more important than ever. And I’m really looking forward to meeting with Prime Minister Lawrence Wong tomorrow. We are good friends. We have an important relationship. We have a green energy partnership. We have so many protocols in place between our two nations.
