The 20-minute meeting, which took place on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (Apec) summit, is the first between both leaders since PM Wong assumed his role in May 2024.
Addressing Mr Xi at the start of their meeting, PM Wong said: "I am very happy to have the chance to meet you for the first time."
PM Wong said the relationship between both countries is in excellent shape, especially after bilateral ties were formally upgraded in April 2023. Singapore and China now have what is termed an "all-round high-quality future-oriented partnership".
"Since then, our relations have continued to have very positive momentum," he added.
