Visa-free policy boosts tourism, exchange with Singapore

Since the mutual visa-free policy between China and Singapore was implemented on Feb 9, travel between the two countries has surged, significantly boosting tourism and fostering cultural exchanges and people-to-people connections.

In the first half of the year, China reclaimed its status as the largest source of foreign tourists for Singapore, while the number of Singaporean visitors to China has also risen notably.

Pedro Li, 29, from Kunming in Yunnan province, recently returned from a trip to Singapore and highly recommends it as a travel destination.
