forge partnerships. Our domestic efforts are complemented by international collaboration. Besides the UNFCCC discussions, Singapore participates in related multilateral efforts, including discussions hosted by the World Trade Organisation (WTO), the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO), the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) and the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO), in support of a holistic approach to deal with climate change. We are also actively engaged in environmental cooperation through regional and bilateral platforms such as the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC), the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group (C40) and the Sino - Singapore Tianjin Eco-city.
