SINGAPORE - A Singaporean has been appointed as the International Monetary Fund's (IMF) chief information officer (CIO) and information technology department director.

Ms Shirin Hamid is expected to assume her new role on Jan 4 next year and will succeed Mr Edward Anderson, who left the fund in June.

A press release by the IMF on Wednesday (Oct 20) said her election was the outcome of an internationally competitive process.

Well done Shirin but remember to keep healthy ok?

Funny how foreign MNCs always claim there is IT talent shortage in SG, but yet someone from SG can be IMF CIO.

There is only a shortage in SG if you want to pay "South Asia" level of salary.
