Her Majesty Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands, who is in Singapore for a State Visit from January 23 to 25, was officially welcomed by President Tony Tan Keng Yam and Mrs Tan at the Istana this morning.
Following the ceremony, Queen Beatrix met with President Tan and Mrs Tan. After the meeting, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong called on Queen Beatrix.
President Tan and Mrs Tan also hosted a State Banquet in honour of Queen Beatrix. On Singapore-Netherlands relations, President Tan said: "Singapore and the Netherlands share a special and longstanding friendship that goes back to the 19th century.
"Indeed, the Netherlands is not only one of Singapore's first friends, but also one of our most steadfast friends. Today, this friendship continues to endure and flourish, underpinned by our shared interests as small, outward-oriented and forward-looking countries."
