Original: 面对贸易干扰和难以预测的国际局势，我国决定加入巴拿马运河永久中立条约的议定书，并与巴拿马启动双边司法互助谈判。尚达曼总统指出，小国须携手加强维护国际法的机构，共同维护航行自由。
Singapore has decided to accede to the protocol of the treaty guaranteeing the permanent neutrality of the Panama Canal, and will begin bilateral mutual legal assistance negotiations with Panama. The announcement comes amid trade disruptions and an unpredictable international environment. President Tharman Shanmugaratnam said small countries must work together to strengthen institutions that uphold international law and jointly safeguard freedom of navigation.
Why now: Small states are increasingly worried about trade disruption and threats to freedom of navigation, making Singapore's move to back the canal's neutrality notable.
