“The Straits of Malacca and Singapore are used for international navigation, and therefore the rights of transit passage similarly apply,” said Gan, who is also trade and industry minister, on the opening day of Singapore Maritime Week.

“This is something that we have worked together over the years, to make sure that we maintain the straits [with] a shared responsibility.”
