​Mr Villeroy de Galhau said, “It is my great pleasure to be able to formally inaugurate our Asia-Pacific Representative Office here in Singapore. Although Covid-related restrictions have prevented us from fully deploying the initial roadmap assigned to our Singapore office, we have already started to reap the fruits of this endeavour, including for our relationship with the whole Asian region. Setting up a Representative Office in the heart of the Asia Pacific region is a clear recognition of the growing importance of the region as a whole in today’s global economy. I wish to extend my sincere thanks to MD Menon and MAS principals and staff for their outstanding support.”
