YAB Dato' Seri Anwar bin Ibrahim, Prime Minister of Malaysia and H.E. Lee Hsien Loong, Prime Minister of the Republic of Singapore, witnessed the signing of the MoU at The Istana in Singapore.
 

The MoU was officially signed by Mr. Rizal bin Nainy, Chief Executive Officer of SME Corp. Malaysia, and Mr. Lee Chuan Teck, Chief Executive Officer of Enterprise Singapore, with the objective of strengthening bilateral relations, particularly in the areas of digitalisation, training, sustainability, and greater market access for MSMEs in Malaysia and Singapore.
