SINGAPORE: Indonesian President Joko Widodo will visit Singapore on Wednesday (Jun 7) to give a speech at Temasek’s Ecosperity Week, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) said on Tuesday.

He will be accompanied on his trip by first lady Iriana Joko Widodo and members of his Cabinet.

“Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and Mrs Lee will host President Joko Widodo and first lady Iriana Joko Widodo to lunch,” MFA said in a statement.
