AmCham backs Trump-Kim summit

It said it will back US engagement in Asia’s free trade.

The American Chamber of Commerce in Singapore (AmCham SG) backed the meeting between US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, it said in a statement.

AmCham SG chairman Dwight Hutchins said, “Singapore’s talented government, commitment to rule of law, world-class infrastructure as well as a safe and secure environment are second to none. The American Chamber of Commerce Singapore (AmCham SG) is very encouraged by this endeavour between the two governments as regional security go hand-in-hand with economic security.”

AmCham SG governor Steve Okun added that the group is looking to support the US government as it develops it “whole-of-government” Indo-Pacific strategy.

“Coupled with leadership shown by these talks, we look forward to US engagement as the Asia Pacific moves forward on liberalizing trade. A regional, multiparty framework is the best way to address 21st century business issues, and AmCham SG supports full US engagement in the region,” he added.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
