Singapore's perfect man for the world
IN THE aftermath of the recent General Election, as an American friend of Singapore, and a personal one of Foreign Minister George Yeo, I want to say that he has been the perfect global representative for Singapore.
A man of the world, an advocate for free trade, Asean and Asia, a man of vast talent and always a visionary, he has impressed those around him wherever he has travelled to put Singapore's best foot forward.
Mr Yeo and I first met at a conference about 20 years ago. After that meeting, I put him in my exclusive book of people I believe slated to make the world a better place and accomplish great things. In the case of Mr Yeo, I am pleased that I have been abundantly right. So, although he lost the election, he is a man of vigour, and I am just as certain as I was at that first meeting 20 years ago that in whatever he does, he will continue to make the world a better place and go on as an extraordinary representative of Singapore.
