SBF appoints Lee Yi Shyan adviser to Africa, China and Mid-East business groups
THE Singapore Business Federation (SBF) has appointed former senior minister of state for trade and industry Lee Yi Shyan as adviser to three of its business groups as part of its internationalisation efforts.
The three groups are the Africa Business Group, China Business Group and Middle East Business Group.
Mr Lee will be part of a resource panel advising key business issues affecting economic ties between Singapore and these markets.
"He will also contribute to strengthening SBF's in-market reach and business facilitation efforts, given his extensive relationships in the government and business sectors in the three regions," SBF said.
The SBF business groups have been established as platforms to bring together public and private sectors in Singapore and the respective regions.
