Dr Tan said Singapore-Australia education ties were forged in the 1960s, when Singapore students came to Australia under the Colombo Plan Scholarship. Recently, Australian launched the New Colombo Plan - to send its students to Asia.
"Singapore is happy to be amongst the four participants of the pilot phase of the New Colombo Plan," said Dr Tan. "Over time, these students will act as yet another bridge connecting our two countries. I am confident that the New Colombo Plan will play an important role in strengthening our education and people-to-people ties.
