The Singapore government has chosen Tarun Das, chief mentor of Confederation of Indian Industry, for the prestigious Singapore National Day Award for 2004.
The public service medal -- one of Singapore's most prestigious award -- is given to outstanding international personalities in recognition of their support and contribution to the country's economy, a CII statement said.
The medal will be handed over to Das by Singapore President S R Nathan in November this year.
"Das has been chosen for this unique honour for his contribution to strengthening economic ties between India and Singapore," it said.
