The Big Story: Who is Anji Sinha, Trump’s pick for US ambassador to Singapore?

US President Donald Trump has nominated entrepreneur Anji Sinha to serve as the new United States Ambassador to Singapore. Yet, Dr Sinha is relatively little known, with no presence on websites or social media platforms. This appointment is still subject to confirmation by the Senate. So, who exactly is Dr Sinha? Why did Trump choose Sinha as his ambassador? And how will the Senate confirmation process play out given that there are other high-profile nominees awaiting approval?
