The Maritime Authority of the Cayman Islands (MACI) has announced this week that it has appointed Ms Evelyn Soon to be the Singapore Representative of the Cayman Islands Shipping Registry (CISR).

The appointment was made by the CEO of MACI, Mr A. Joel Walton, and takes place with immediate effect.

Ms Soon has just recently completed a month’s training at MACI headquarters here and is now back in Singapore.

Ms Soon received a Bachelor’s of Engineering (Hons) in Electronics & Electrical Engineering from the University of Glasgow, Scotland, and a diploma in Electronics Engineering from Temasek Polytechnic in Singapore.

She speaks English, Mandarin and Cantonese, and is currently serving as Secretary for the Women’s International Shipping & Trading Association’s Singapore chapter.

"Obviously, from her qualifications and experience, Ms. Soon is an ideal candidate for the Cayman Shipping Registry in our new Singapore marketing strategy, " Mr Walton announced, adding:

"CISR is currently taking advantage of its past successes and expanding its physical presence globally, having just established representation in Cannes, France, and now adding Singapore," Mr. Walton explains. In addition to Headquarters in Grand Cayman, CISR has its European Regional Office in Southampton, England, and Representative Offices in Athens, Greece; Cannes, France; Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, and Tokyo, Japan."
