    contribution in the country's development," MFA informed Armenian

    Lee Kuan Yew's visit to Armenia in 2009 opened a new chapter in
    relations between the two countries, and he expressed confidence that

    give new impetus to developing collaboration between both countries.

    consolidating the legal and contractual domain.

    Singapore's FM likewise underscored the Singaporean Armenian
    community's role in his country's development.

    matters.

    Also, Edward Nalbandian presented his Singaporean counterpart Armenia's
    steps being taken toward establishing security and cooperation in
    the Caucasus, and the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict settlement process.

    The discussions continued during the official dinner which Singapore's
    FM had organized in Armenian FM's honor.

    While in Singapore, Edward Nalbandian also paid a visit to the Saint
    Gregory the Illuminator Armenian Church, which was founded in 1835,
    where he met with representatives of the country's Armenian community.
