Singapore has condoled the passing of His Highness the Father Amir, Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani and paid rich tributes to his contributions.
“On behalf of the Embassy of Singapore in Doha, I extend my sincere condolences to His Highness the Amir, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani,, the Royal Family, and the people of Qatar. “We will remember His Highness the Father Emir for the bridges he built, and the heart and warmth with which he built them,” said Pong Kok Tian, ambassador of Singapore. “His Highness the Father Emir was instrumental in forging the warm and enduring friendship between Singapore and Qatar. It was at his suggestion that the Qatar–Singapore High-Level Joint Committee was established in 2006. It is an enduring legacy that continues to bring mutual benefits to Singapore and Qatar, as our countries continually explore new areas to leverage our complementarities.”
