THE Singapore Institute of International Affairs (SIIA), Singapore’s oldest think-tank, has been ranked the best independent think-tank in Asia for the second year running in the 2017 Global Go To Think Tank Index released earlier this month.

Globally, it came in at 24th, one spot higher than the previous year.

The index defines independent think-tanks as those which are autonomous in their operation and funding from government.

SIIA was also named as the top think-tank in Asean in the category of “Top Think-Tanks Worldwide (US and non-US)”.
