On MoneyFM 89.3 Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen welcomes H.E. Anneke Adema, Ambassador of the Kingdom of the Netherlands to Singapore and Brunei. She's a seasoned diplomat whose career has been defined by her commitment to international cooperation, inclusivity, and the rule of law. Ambassador Adema reflects on 60 years of diplomatic relations between Singapore and the Netherlands, a milestone she recently celebrated by hosting a special lunch at her residence one where guests had to “work for their lunch,” a playful nod to the Dutch spirit of collaboration. She shares why the Netherlands considers Singapore one of its most important partners in Asia, and how both countries’ shared worldview open economies, innovation, sustainability, and multilateralism continues to anchor the relationship.  We explore the deep ties between the two nations: from trade and maritime cooperation to green transition efforts, digital innovation, and people‑to‑people exchange. Ambassador Adema also discusses her priorities since arriving in 2022, the evolving role of diplomacy in a more uncertain world, and how the Netherlands is strengthening partnerships across Southeast Asia.
