00:00 Singapore's deal with Taylor Swift to make it the only stop in Southeast Asia on her

00:08 world tour was not a hostile act towards its neighbours.

00:13 This is what Singapore's Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong had to say after other countries

00:18 in the region expressed annoyance with the city-state's agreement with Swift.

00:22 Lee said his administration successfully negotiated an agreement with Swift's team to make Singapore

00:28 her only stop in Southeast Asia, Reuters reported.

00:33 Describing this deal as being very successful, he said he did not see the arrangement as

00:37 being unfriendly to neighbouring countries.

00:41 Swift is currently halfway through her six sold-out shows in Singapore after wrapping

00:46 up four shows in Japan last month.

00:49 Thai Prime Minister Sreerata Thavsin previously said Singapore offered Swift up to US$3 million

00:55 subsidies for each concert in exchange for not performing elsewhere in the region.
