SINGAPORE: Dr Tony Tan Keng Yam has been sworn in as the seventh President of
Singapore, less than a week after winning the presidential polls.
The 71-year-old former deputy prime minister took his oath in the presence of
Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and Chief Justice Chan Sek Keong.
A guard of honour mounted by the Singapore Armed Forces and the Singapore
Police Force welcomed the country's new President, before he took his Oath of
Office.
"I, Tony Tan Keng Yam, having been elected as the president of Singapore, do
solemnly swear that I will faithfully discharge my duties," he said.
The swearing-in ceremony at the Istana on Thursday was witnessed by Cabinet
ministers, members of the judiciary, parliamentarians and senior civil
servants. Also present was Dr Tan's wife, Mrs Mary Tan.
Dr Tan, whose term of office is for six years, was elected after a
four-cornered contest in the Presidential Election held on 27 August.
