The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) yesterday announced that Taiwan's representative to Singapore Vanessa Shih (史亞平) will be transferred back to Taipei after serving for three years as the government's top official in the city-state.
During a Republic of China (R.O.C.) National Day celebration event last year in the city-state, Shih reportedly sang the R.O.C. national anthem, a move that angered the Singaporean government as it adheres to the “one China” policy, the report said.
Shih also reportedly contacted the opposition party in Singapore, further angering the government of the city-state, the report stated.
Her “improper conduct” is reportedly the reason for a temporary diplomatic shutdown between Taiwan and Singapore. Full story
