The intriguing news is that Japan has put out secret feelers to China for their leaders (or their foreign ministers) to meet, and that Beijing has not rejected outright Tokyo's overtures:
From the reports above, assuming the summit does eventually take place, Singapore should offer itself as the venue. We should be the Vienna of the East! We were the venue for high-level talks in 1993 between China and Taiwan after both sides had put out feelers to each other (the so-called "1992 Consensus").

More recently, US Vice President Joseph Biden and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe happened to "bump" into each other in Singapore. Yeah, right:
If the meeting was unplanned and spontaneous, how come those flags were so readily at hand?...
So, as the Nike ad says, "(Singapore should) Just Do It!"
