Committee of Supply 2025 debate, Day 2: Desmond Choo on MFA's consular efforts

01:03 Min

Plagued by heightened global tensions, conflicts can happen in any country unprovoked and unexpectedly. It is hence imperative that Singapore’s consular efforts can promise operational capabilities in each country Singaporeans might find themselves in. MP Desmond Choo said this in parliament on Monday (Mar 3). Other than contacting the 24-hour Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) duty office hotline in times of need, he asked MFA to share how it ensures that Singaporeans in need, even in countries without an on-ground diplomatic mission, can still access prompt and effective consular support.
