Awesome! English-strong partners provide international interfaces. Quantum technology now depends on global collaboration, software ecosystems, shared standards, and agenda-setting, all of which operate primarily in English.
The issue is not cultural or intellectual weakness, but infrastructure and leverage.
Without English, science and technology can function, innovate, and even excel inside closed systems, but without English, there’s a ceiling. English isn’t required to think, it’s required to connect.
Any model trained without English loses access to the densest, most interconnected body of technical, scientific, and computational knowledge ever produced.

Singapore is a tiny country but it act as a geopolitically neutral hub for innovation. Both countries can benefit from cooperation.

It’s interesting, I think Japan can be a bit risk averse when it comes to startups, and Singapore is really excellent at innovation, so hopefully this can assist in growing collaborative startup cultures between the two countries.
