「你需要改進」：川普挑選的新加坡特使在參議院受到質詢

Anjani Sinha, a doctor and businessman from Florida, was chosen by former President Donald Trump to be the next US ambassador to Singapore. This is an important job because the ambassador represents the United States in Singapore and works to keep the relationship between the two countries strong. However, Dr Sinha faced a tough time during his Senate confirmation hearing, where he had to answer questions from senators to prove he was ready for the job.

Senator Tammy Duckworth, who is from the Democratic Party, asked Dr Sinha several questions about Singapore and the US's relationship with the country. She wanted to know if he understood key facts, such as the trade surplus between the US and Singapore, Singapore's role in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean), and the presence of the US Navy in Singapore. Dr Sinha struggled to answer these questions. For example, when asked about the trade surplus, he first said it was 80 billion dollars, then changed his answer to 18 billion, but the correct answer was only 2. 8 billion dollars. When asked about how he would explain President Trump's plan to put a 10 percent tariff on goods, Dr Sinha gave several unclear answers and finally said, 'the dialogue is not closed.

Senator Duckworth was not impressed with Dr Sinha's performance. She told him that he seemed unprepared and needed to 'shape up and do some homework. ' She said it looked like he thought being an ambassador was just a glamorous job, but it was actually a serious position that required hard work and knowledge. The video of the hearing quickly spread online in Singapore, with many people criticizing Dr Sinha's answers and questioning whether he was the right person for the job. Some people joked that he was more of an 'Embarassador' than an ambassador, while others praised Senator Duckworth for asking tough questions. Despite the criticism, Dr Sinha's nomination is likely to move forward because the Senate is controlled by Republicans, who are expected to approve his appointment. The final decision will be made in a full Senate vote.
