"A good ambassador is one who can provide his government with information and viewpoints beyond what his government can harvest from gleaning newspaper reports and official reports. He must probe beneath the surface of things and extract truths tucked away in normally inaccessible areas of that country's politics and economics." From the Foreword by S. RAJARATNAM, Former Second Deputy Prime Minister (Foreign Affairs) Singapore.
