Persons Appointed as Non-Resident Ambassadors from 2011 to 2016

Ms Sylvia Lim asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs if he can provide a list of the persons appointed by the Government as Non-Resident Ambassadors from 2011 to 2016.

Dr Vivian Balakrishnan: There are 45 Non-Resident Ambassadors (NRAs) appointed between 2011 and 2016 who are still holding their appointments as of date. They are accredited to 48 countries and 4 International Organisations (UNESCO, Pacific Islands Forum, CARICOM and African Union). The names of these NRAs are published in the MFA website (https://www.mfa.gov.sg/content/mfa/missions/singapore_mission/mission_locator.html) which Ms Sylvia Lim could refer to for more details.
