Modi’s United Kingdom visit, one more futile exercise

Modi may also carry discussions with leading command of Malaysia, including his counterpart Razak, on strategies to ramp up bilateral assistance in a selection of areas including protection and safety and take the proper connections to your new level.

Seeking a transparent and non-discriminatory global trading system, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said all elements of the WTO’s Bali pact should be fully implemented. The Prime Minister emphasised the traditional link between India and the United Kingdom, he underlined that India is the third biggest investor in the United Kingdom, and Indian investments in United Kingdom exceed the investments made by Indians across European Union taken together.

It is learnt that Modi, who is attending the Asean Summit in the city, will spend 30 minutes in Little India, Brickfields where the gate is located. Modi’s visit has managed to successfully put India-UK ties back on track and to redefine the terms of the relationship when India is no longer a supplicant but an emerging power, even providing jobs to the British economy.

Yet, it would be fair to say that Britain invested far more in the Modi visit than did India. “India’s trade with Malaysia is also vibrant, particularly in the commodities sector”, pointed out Modi.

This includes the inauguration of the Torana Gate which was launched in 2010 by Modi’s predecessor, Manmohan Singh.

The leader of one of the world’s fastest-growing economies recently visited the United Kingdom, marked as an opportunity for the United Kingdom and India to help each other prosper.

Addressing news persons at Antalya, Ministry of External Affairs ( MEA) official spokesperson Vikas Swarup said Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan expressed keen interest in having the Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement with India. However, as India develops and undertakes huge economic and corporate reform, exciting investment opportunities could present themselves, although a long-term horizon is essential.

Modi will visit Institute of Technical Education and pay homage at the INA Memorial Marker at Esplanade Park. “Over 3,50,000 Indians stay in Singapore”.
