From a strategic point of view, countries like Pakistan and Iran have little value to the mighty Singapore. They should consider themselves lucky that we even bother to have a non-resident ambassador to their backward countries.

So did countries like Egypt and India. Look at them both today.

without Indians, there wont be Vivian, Tharman or the whole gang

The length of a civilization is no proof of its brilliance. It's more of its ability to either fend off aggressors, or culturally absorb the men who raped and plundered their way through their lands.

India and Egypt both have screwed up systems and moral beliefs. So, they can continue to exist for the next few hundred years and still be poor and wretched places to live and be born in.

Iran possess the most powerful military in the middle east with the exception of Saudi arabia .it is also the most powerful sovereign country.Iran's president is a impressive witty and intelligent man.iran plays a prominent role in oil and politics and is the only country US is afraid of.it is not Iran that's of no strategic importance, it is singapore .when abdudenneja speaks USA and the world listens.when Singapore speaks others tell it to be quiet and stop being a spoilt brat.

with technology, sg can always set up a telepresence office in teheran. there's no need to risk life and limbs in a remote cuntry where few transactions are made, except inserting an intell post on behalf of mossad and uncle sam. :p
