Message from the Patron

Since its inception, the Malaysian Association in Singapore (MASIS) plays an indispensable role in uniting Malaysians and those of Malaysian descent who live, work, or study in Singapore. By celebrating our unique heritage and cultural identity, MASIS bridges the geographical gap and brings the familiar warmth of home to our community across the Causeway.

As the newly appointed High Commissioner of Malaysia to Singapore, it is my distinct privilege to step into the role of Patron for MASIS. I look forward to working closely with the association to deepen our communal bonds, foster greater collaboration and to continue the good work of my predecessor, Dato’ Indera Dr. Azfar bin Mohamad Mustafar.

In doing so, we will collectively enrich the enduring, close bilateral relationship between Malaysia and Singapore.
I am also confident that the dynamic Board of Advisors and the Management Committee of MASIS will continue their remarkable momentum in rolling out impactful programmes and initiatives. From socio-cultural events and sports to student outreach and corporate networking, MASIS remains central to strengthening people-to-people ties.

I warmly invite all Malaysians residing in Singapore to join this vibrant community, participate in its diverse activities, and drive our shared aspirations forward.

I wish MASIS and its members a highly successful and meaningful journey ahead.
