Indonesia and Singapore jointly announced that the Malacca Strait will remain safe, open, and accessible for all nations. The declaration came after Iran’s move to impose fees on ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz. The announcement was made following a meeting in Jakarta between Singapore’s Prime Minister Lawrence Wong and Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto.
President Subianto stated that both countries share a common interest in keeping the Malacca Strait an open maritime route and will continue coordination with Malaysia and Thailand. Prime Minister Wong reaffirmed their commitment to maintaining freedom of navigation under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea.
Earlier, Iran’s ambassador to China said ships crossing the Strait of Hormuz would be charged fees, though “friendly” nations would receive special treatment. The Hormuz Strait handles about one-fifth of global crude oil and liquefied natural gas shipments, making the Malacca Strait’s openness strategically significant.
