Northern Ireland
from 1997-2007, will travel to
Malaysia
&
Singapore
in
April 2010
to head-up an impressive global speaker line-up at the 2010 National Achievers Congress. Now in its 18th year, the Congress is a platform for learning and development that over the years has presented former US President
Bill Clinton
,
Robert Kiyosaki
,
Michael Porter
and many others to thousands of Malaysians and Singaporeans. The Congress, which takes place in
Kuala Lumpur
and then in
Singapore
several days later, generally attracts 6000-7000 delegates who spend three days learning from, and being inspired by, some of the world's greatest leaders and entrepreneurs.
Tony Blair
will first speak at the National Achievers Congress in
Kuala Lumpur
(23-25th April) and then travel south for the Singapore National Achievers Congress (27-29th April). He no doubt has fond memories of
Singapore
- being the country that he travelled to in
July 2005
, to hear the news that
London
had been selected by the International Olympic Committee to be the host of the 2012 Olympic Games.
Blair will be taking time away from his current role in the
Middle East
, where he is working for the
USA
, UN,
Russia
and EU as the Quartet Representative, helping the Palestinians to prepare for statehood as part of the international community's effort to secure peace.
Tony Blair
served as Prime Minister of
Great Britain
and
Northern Ireland
from
May 1997
to
June 2007
. He was also the leader of
Britain's
Labour Party from 1994 to 2007. He continues to be active in public life, with many interests. He launched the Tony Blair Faith Foundation to promote respect and understanding of and between the major religions and to make the case for faith as a force for good in the modern world. The foundation works with Buddhists, Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, Jews, and Hindus. Blair believes that faith will have great influence in how the challenges that globalisation presents will be met. Part of the Foundation's role is to mobilise faith communities to work together in pursuit of the Millennium Development Goals to tackle global poverty and conflict.
Blair is also a keen supporter of issues around
Africa
and climate change. He is a member of the Africa Progress Panel and eighteen months ago launched the 'Breaking the Climate Deadlock Initiative' through which he is working with world leaders to set the world on a new path to a low carbon future.
