China and Singapore are expected to sign a series of agreements during Xi's visit, which will highlight the latest consensus and achievements between the two countries.

The China-Singapore cooperation has always been forward-looking and pace-setting, as the two countries will redefine their relations to keep abreast of the times and expand to various areas, said Chen.

"China and Singapore will also announce the third government-to-government project besides the Suzhou Industrial Park and Tianjin Eco-city during Xi's visit," Chen said.

The new inter-governmental project will be located in western China, and focused on inter-connectivity and modern service industry, as China has come up with the "Belt and Road" initiative.

Leaders of the two countries will jointly promote the upgrading of a bilateral free trade agreement, and map out a guideline for the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Maritime Silk Road.

In addition, China and Singapore will sign an array of cooperation agreements on education, customs, finance and urban governance.

President Xi and Emeritus Senior Minister Goh Chok Tong will also inaugurate a China Cultural Center in Singapore, and Xi will deliver a speech on China-Singapore, China-ASEAN relations as well as the regional situation.

According to the ambassador, an orchid, Singapore's national flower, will be named after President Xi and his wife in honor of the friendship between the two countries.

President Xi's upcoming visit will inject an impetus to and open a new chapter for China-Singapore relations, he said.
