International Exposure - ICMIF

Here is a message from a former colleague:

Dear Mr. Tan,
I also hope for a President who will truly promote an inclusive society which does not over-emphasise elitism, status and wealth.

Last but no least, I believe a President will be a face of Singapore, besides the Prime Minister and his cabinet, with which the international community will respect and relate.  I recalled you have held top positions in international insurance bodies in the past so I believe you will be able to fulfil the role of the President of Singapore well.


Here are the facts from www.tankinlian.com
From 1992 to 1997, I was the chairman of the International Cooperative and Mutual Insurance Federation, an international organisation representing 123 insurance groups in 65 countries. (www.icmif.org).   The total assets of the members of this international federation totalled USD 1.5 trillion (which is probably larger than the total reserves of Singapore). They employed a total of 260,000 people. More details can be found here: http://www.icmif.org/who-we-are
