Singapore welcomes the United States' continued commitment in Afghanistan that President Obama outlined today. This is a positive and pragmatic way forward.

Singapore continues to support the multinational stabilisation and reconstruction efforts in Afghanistan. A Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) Weapon Locating Radar and a medical team are now deployed in Oruzgan province and an engineering team in Bamiyan province in support of these efforts. Singapore has also offered to deploy a KC-135 aerial refuelling tanker and an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle detachment if these are useful to the multinational efforts. Singapore has also been offering a variety of training programmes for Afghan officials, including healthcare, anti-narcotics control, and water and waste management.
