DIPLOMACY OF A TINY STATE
(2nd Edition)
by Lee Khoon Choy
"A good ambassador is one who can provide his government with information and viewpoints beyond what his government can harvest from gleaning newspaper reports and official reports. He must probe beneath the surface of things and extract truths tucked away in normally inaccessible areas of that country's politics and economics."
From the Foreword by S. RAJARATNAM,
Former Second Deputy Prime Minister (Foreign Affairs) Singapore. |
In Mr Rajaratnam's words Lee Khoon Choy "possesses in great measure the qualities necessary to make a good ambassador". With the skill of an experienced journalist, Lee Khoon Choy has recorded his impressions and observations in these memoirs of an ambassador.
