Ambasciata d'Italia a Singapore e Brunei Darussalam

Dopo cinque giorni in banchina l'Amerigo Vespucci lascia il porto di Singapore chiudendo così la 25/ma tappa del suo tour mondiale, cominciato l'1 luglio 2023 da Genova. Con il disormeggio della nave scuola della Marina Militare chiude anche il Villaggio Italia, l'esposizione itinerante che affianca il veliero nel suo giro del mondo. #TourVespucci #WeAreVespucci #ItaliaAVeleSpiegate

🇮🇹 L’Italia risuona a Singapore. La musica introduce, guida e conclude la terza giornata del Villaggio Italia. I sapori e i profumi della tradizione scandiscono il ritmo della giornata e accompagnano i visitatori nel cuore del Paese. La vista della Nave emoziona e ispira le matite degli artisti, tanto che dispiace pensare che non sarà lì per sempre a farsi ritrarre e ammirare. Un itinerario sensoriale senza confini rigidi, che lascia spazio all'interpretazione e al gusto di chi lo vive. ____________ 🇬🇧 Italy resonates in Singapore. Music opens, guides, and closes the third day of Villaggio Italia. The flavours and aromas of tradition set the rhythm of the day, accompanying visitors into the heart of Italy. The sight of the Ship stirs emotions and inspires artists’ pencils, making it hard to think it won’t always be there to be sketched and admired. A sensory journey without rigid boundaries, allowing space for interpretation and the personal taste of each visitor. #TourVespucci #WeAreVespucci Marina Militare | Presidenza del Consiglio dei Ministri | Ministero della Difesa | Andrea Abodi | Ministero degli Affari Esteri e della Cooperazione Internazionale | Ministero dell'Economia e delle Finanze | Ministero delle Imprese e del Made in Italy | Ministero delle Politiche Agricole Alimentari e Forestali | Ministero dell'Ambiente e della Sicurezza Energetica | Ministero delle Infrastrutture e dei Trasporti | Ministero della Cultura | Ministero del Turismo | Ambasciata d'Italia a Singapore e Brunei Darussalam

Italians as a people of poets, artists, heroes, saints, thinkers, scientists, navigators, transmigrants. Without going into the merits and historical motivations of that definition, we can certainly add that we have excellent navigating scientists on the #AmerigoVespucci! With the collaboration between the Ambasciata d'Italia a Singapore e Brunei Darussalam and INFN, a cosmic ray detector was installed in Darwin and at its port in Singapore in #VillaggioItalia, a stimulating seminar on the subject was organized with Davide Serini and Nicola Mazziotta as speakers who recorded a #SolarFlare of strong intensity, that was a localized emission of #ElectromagneticRadiation in the atmosphere of the #Sun while sailing in the Java Sea. After leaving the port of Singapore, this scientific instrumentation will continue to take further data on the effects of the magnetosphere and the atmosphere on the number of cosmic rays. Other navigating scientists, Domenico Sguerso, Ilaria Ferrando and Bianca Federici  of the Sea Study Center of Università degli Studi di Genova, have embarked in Singapore for additional #environmental measurements on #WaterVapour tracking and “trinchetto” mast deflection measurement by #GNSS, taking Italian science on a circumnavigation around the world.   #ScienceDiplomacy #TourVespucci #WeAreVespucci

🇸🇬🇮🇹⛴️ Welcomed Italy’s historic naval tall ship the Amerigo Vespucci to Singapore. Built in 1930, the three-masted ship embodies the spirit of tradition and innovation with its preserved exterior and modern hybrid electric engine. 🇸🇬🤝🇮🇹 The visit followed a meeting I had with Italy’s Deputy Minister of Enterprises and Made in Italy, Valentino Valentini, in Rome back in June. It was my turn to host him in Singapore, and we reaffirmed our commitment to deepen our economic partnership, anchored by the EU-Singapore Free Trade Agreement (EUSFTA) ⚓ I also thanked Minister Valentini for his role in Italy ratifying the EU-Singapore Investment Protection Agreement. We had discussed this in Rome, and he moved fast to make it happen. Minister Valentini and I also spoke at the Invest in Italy conference. We shared how our companies can tap our countries’ complementary strengths and roles as gateways to our respective regions. A big thank you to Enterprise Singapore for facilitating this memorable experience and bringing Italian and Singaporean businesses together. As Singapore and Italy continue to strengthen our economic ties, we draw inspiration from the Vespucci’s motto — “Not he who begins, but he who perseveres.” 📢 Visit the Villaggio Italia and the iconic Vespucci ship this weekend at the Marina Bay Cruise Centre!
