Mr Wolf, who's in Singapore from September 6 to 8, also attended the 5th Singapore-Germany Defence Policy Dialogue conducted by MINDEF and the German Federal Ministry of Defence.
The Defence Policy Dialogue was co-chaired by Permanent Secretary for Defence Chiang Chie Foo and Mr Wolf.
MINDEF said since its inception in 2004, the Defence Policy Dialogue has matured into a regular platform for both countries to discuss defence cooperation and strategic developments of mutual interest.
