Singapore High Commissioner apologises to Malaysia, distancing Jocelyn Chia as “no longer Singaporean”
Singapore High Commissioner to Malaysia, Vanu Gopala Menon, has apologized for remarks made by comedian Jocelyn Chia about the MH370 tragedy. Chia, a former Singaporean, sparked outrage with her insensitively humorous reference to the tragedy during a performance in New York.
Menon condemned the remarks, stressing they did not reflect Singapore’s views and were detrimental to the close relationship between Singapore and Malaysia.
