First overseas trip since COVID-19 began, New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern will visit Singapore and Japan during a six-day trade mission.

The New Zealand government aims to promote New Zealand tourism and education to both Asian nations and support local businesses in rebuilding and developing connections in both markets.

“This first trade mission is part of our wider plan to reconnect with the world following the devastation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, strengthening partnerships between government, business, and industry will help accelerate our strong economic recovery,” Ardern previously said in a statement.
