China is a country with long history, splendid cultural heritage and many different ethnic groups. In that long process of development and during their joint efforts of economic construction and in their common struggle against foreign invasions for national unity and ethnic harmony, the Chinese people of different ethnic groups have developed together this unique and diversified Chinese civilization. Meanwhile, an open-mindedness and generosity was cultivated that people should reserve their differences and seek common ground for mutual development. No nation is or can be isolated in their development. Take the development of China’s culture for example, with a tradition of opening up to the outside world, China is opening its arms to embrace the world on an unprecedented scale after decades of reform and opening up. The Chinese Government encourages all types of cultural exchange in order to let the world know China and vice versa. This is the sincere aspiration cherished by the Chinese People. Today, culture and art have become a bridge of friendship connecting the Chinese people and people the world over. At present, a new situation featuring multiple channels and forms has appeared in cultural exchange between China and other countries. It has promoted inter-governmental contacts, expanded direct exchange and expedited bilateral and multilateral exchanges, gradually pushing the level of exchange to a higher level.

China and Singapore enjoy good relations. Since the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries, cultural exchange has become more and more frequent, in the field of literature and art, press, sports, religion, tourism, etc.

The Department of Cultural Affairs, Chinese Embassy in Singapore serves as a bridge in promoting cultural exchange between the two countries. By providing excellent cultural services and cooperation with the Singaporean cultural workers, the Department is willing to further enhance the friendship with better understanding between the people of the two nations.
