Synopsis: The Straits Times analyses Singapore's latest news and announcements. 

New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern recently visited Singapore on April 18, her first overseas visit since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic. This was her second visit here as New Zealand prime minister, after the first one in 2019.

Often publicly seen as New Zealand's people-person PM, Ms Adern sat down with The Straits Times' associate editor Vikram Khanna for a wide-ranging interview. She talks about partnering Singapore, the Covid-19 experience, geopolitics and her unique leadership style and connection with her citizens.
