Excellency, 

On behalf of the Government and the people of India and on my own behalf, I extend my heartfelt felicitations and warm greetings to you and the friendly people of Singapore on the occasion of the National Day of Singapore on August 09, 2017. 

The bilateral relations between India and Singapore are marked by traditional friendship and warmth. Our ties have grown in quality and depth in a wide range of areas including defence and security, trade and investment, education and culture. India views Singapore as a key strategic partner in the ASEAN region. 

I look forward to continue working with you to deepen and broaden the relationship further for mutual benefit. 

Please accept, Excellency, the assurances of my highest consideration. 

(Narendra Modi) 

H.E. Mr. Lee Hsien Loong

Prime Minister of the Republic of Singapore, Singapore
