SINGAPORE - Singapore and New Zealand will work to remove existing trade restrictive measures on essential goods, especially medical supplies, as both countries on Friday committed to maintain connected supply chains amid the coronavirus outbreak.

The ministers recognised that it is in both countries' mutual interest to ensure that trade lines remain open, including air and sea freight, to facilitate the flow of goods. They also committed to working with all like-minded countries to ensure that trade continues to flow unimpeded, and that critical infrastructure such as airports and seaports remain open to support supply chains globally.

Mr Chan has spoken on multiple occasions about Singapore's supply chain resilience. In early March, he said Singapore is reviewing its stockpile of essential items and is also looking at diversifying its supply chains.
