WASHINGTON – Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong will arrive in New York on Saturday (Sept 21) for a week-long working visit, during which he will meet United States President Donald Trump and address world leaders at the United Nations General Assembly.

The meeting between PM Lee and President Trump, announced by the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) in a statement on Friday, will be their fourth since Mr Trump took office in 2017.
