Many Singaporeans have expressed concern about friends and relatives visiting or working in the New York City Area. At this time, we have no information as to whether Singaporeans are among the victims.
Our Missions in New York and Washington are working to ascertain whether there are in fact any Singaporeans involved. We will issue further statements as and when information becomes available.
In the mean time, the public can call our consular hotline at (65) 3320000 for enquiries.
