| In 2011, the SIIA intensified its effort to contribute to public discourse and the discussion of regional and global issues in Singapore. As we looked forward to marking our 50th Anniversary year in 2012, the SIIA took the opportunity to introduce two broad research programmes, Global Citizen and Environment and Resources. The Global Citizen initiative will broaden the awareness of international issues amongst professionals and the public, and help shape the actions that they may wish to take in response. The Environment and Resources programme will help address the challenges of a small, resource-dependent country amidst a time of rapid change in environment conditions. |

| In public education, the SIIA has increased its outreach through newspapers, broadcast channels and new media. A Facebook page for the institute has been launched to further engage with our online audience. In terms on Membership, there is an 18% increase in corporate members and a 25% increase in individual members. |

| SIIA’s total revenue amounted to S$1.49 million, a significant increase on averages from the past 4 years. This was largely due to the efforts of our major flagship events and the 49thAnniversary dinner, held in November and other research projects. As a result, the SIIA turned in surplus of $206 503, 14% of its total revenue. As a calendar year ending 2011, the SIIA had accumulated an operating reserve of $1.3 million. This builds on our efforts of 2010 and represents the largest operating reserve SIIA has held in recent years. As SIIA enters its 50th anniversary year, this sum will help sustain and fund SIIA in its phase of new growth. |
