The second part of the seminar will be attended by French and Singaporean professionals, and host bilateral discussions on the same topics. This will comprise an opening address by Minister for Culture, Community and Youth (Singapore) Mr Edwin Tong, and Minister for Culture (France) Ms Roselyne Bachelot-Narqui.
