Panoramica
The U.S. Embassy in Singapore is the headquarters of the U.S. Mission to Singapore, overseeing one of the most important U.S. partnerships in Asia. The mission's priorities are centered on the massive economic relationship, with thousands of U.S. companies using Singapore as their regional headquarters, and the robust security partnership, which provides the U.S. military with critical logistical access in the region. The embassy is a nerve center for U.S. engagement in the Indo-Pacific.Leggi di piùMostra meno
