AFRICA is the next frontier for Singapore business to conquer, and the Singapore government is playing a big part in facilitating access to the countries there. One of its initiatives is the recent appointment of businessman Tan Puay Hiang as the non-resident ambassador to the East African state of Tanzania.
Tanzania, with its population of 52 million, can be the gateway for East Africa, says Mr Tan. He notes there is growing business interest from Singapore there. "Tanzania is one of the safest countries in Africa with a very stable government and a friendly, efficient civil service. So there are plenty of opportunities for Singapore businessmen there," Mr Tan assures.
