Odisha Seeks Global Partnerships as CM Majhi Embarks on Singapore Investment Mission

Bhubaneswar, [Date] – Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi has embarked on a four-day official visit to Singapore, aiming to showcase the state’s potential as an investment hub and to promote its various business opportunities to global investors.

Majhi, who was accompanied by Odisha’s Industries Minister Sampad and other senior government officials, spoke to the media prior to his departure, expressing his enthusiasm about strengthening economic ties with international businesses. “Our message will be clear that Odisha is open for business, and we are ready for it,” the Chief Minister stated.

The visit, which coincides with the annual Bali Jatra festival in Odisha, a celebration symbolizing the state’s ancient maritime trade and cultural legacy, is expected to serve as a platform for discussions on trade and investment. Bali Jatra marks Odisha’s historical connection with global maritime routes and underscores its potential as a strategic business destination.

The Chief Minister’s agenda in Singapore includes high-level meetings with industry leaders, investors, and representatives from various sectors including manufacturing, technology, infrastructure, and renewable energy. The Odisha delegation is also scheduled to engage in discussions to explore partnerships, investments, and collaboration opportunities in key sectors that align with the state’s development goals.

Odisha has been taking significant steps in recent years to improve its infrastructure, business environment, and ease of doing business rankings, positioning itself as an attractive destination for both domestic and foreign investments.

During his visit, CM Majhi is expected to highlight Odisha’s rich natural resources, skilled workforce, and government incentives for businesses looking to establish a presence in the state.

The Odisha government’s outreach to Singapore follows a series of similar initiatives to promote the state’s investment potential, with an eye on fostering long-term economic growth and job creation for the people of Odisha.

This visit is also seen as an important step in building Odisha’s presence in the global business community, as the state continues to actively pursue its development agenda through strategic partnerships and foreign direct investment (FDI).
