About me

"I'm Leonard, a career diplomat, and I have been with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs since August 2022. I am currently serving as Consul (Political) in our Consulate-General in Hong Kong. Apart from MFA, I am a Youth Leader @ Harmony Circles, and was President of hash.peace, a non-profit organisation dedicated to promoting sustainable social harmony in Singapore from 2021 to 2025. I have extensive experience in the social cohesion sector, having been in the space since 2017. I am also a trained Explorations-into-Ethnicity facilitator with OnePeople.sg, and have led and created multiple youth-for-youth activities in the sector. I can help mentees with understanding possible career paths in public policy, foreign policy, and research, and also help with leadership, management, and public speaking skills."

I'm interested in Arts and Heritage, Global Affairs, National Security, Policy, Law and Governance and Social Cohesion.
