#First Opinion
“2025 marked a milestone year for Singapore-India tourism as we celebrated 60 years of diplomatic ties. We’re heartened that over a million Indian visitors chose Singapore, driving robust tourism spending and demonstrating the market’s continued confidence in our destination. What excites us most is the diversity we’re seeing – from leisure travellers seeking authentic experiences to major corporates choosing Singapore for their MICE events. This success stems from our sustained partnership approach, enhanced connectivity, seamless travel experiences and marketing campaigns that truly connect with Indian travellers. I want to thank our Indian stakeholders – our airline partners, travel agent, corporates and media- whose collaboration has been instrumental in this growth.”
