An act of respect and politeness shown by the Chinese foreign minister during his trip to Singapore has been widely shared on Chinese social media.

Vivian Balakrishnan, foreign minister of Singapore, apologized to Wang for "not wearing tie" while formally welcoming him to Singapore. Wang hugged Vivian and removed his tie quickly so that his Singaporean counterparts wouldn't feel uncomfortable.

The Chinese treat other countries and their people with enormous respect, and this is another excellent example of that.

The Chinese and Singaporean foreign ministers discussed a wide range of strategic topics during the visit. Besides Singapore, the Chinese FM will also visit Malaysia and Cambodia.

Vivian made a choice not to wear a tie. He can't possibly forget.

I am sure if he was still a young minister he would look his sharpest.

Vivian knows that the hot weather of Singapore may be unbearable for Wang Yi. Hence, he may have purposely not put on a tie so as to made it possible for Wang Yi to do likewise. Wang Yi happy to have the opportunaty to do so in this hot weather. . Immediately took it off. I think so. Big Grin

What excuses he gave this time

RE: Vivian Balakrishnan apologized to Wang for "not wearing tie" - p1acebo - 12-08-2023

Actually to be fair, the dress code, etiquette and all sorts of protocols already known beforehand by both sides. 

Not saying anything but Wang Yi or his entourage would have known what his counterpart will be wearing.

These type of things you do not leave to chance huan Big Grin
