MFA Press Statement: Singapore's Offer of Humanitarian Assistance

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and our Embassy in Yangon are closely monitoring the situation in Myanmar in the aftermath of Cyclone Nargis. Our Embassy has been in touch with a majority of the Singaporean community in the country and will continue to try to contact the remainder. There have been no reports thus far of any injuries to any Singaporean as a result of Cyclone Nargis.

Separately, Minister for Foreign Affairs George Yeo has written to his counterpart, Foreign Minister U Nyan Win, to convey his sympathies and Singapore's offer of humanitarian assistance. A copy of Minister Yeo's letter is attached.
