“Raja was instrumental in the founding of the Casino Regulatory Authority of Singapore and in the subsequent selection, due diligence investigations, licensing, regulation and monitoring of the two mega integrated resort developments (IRD's), including casinos, in Singapore. The entire process was done seamlessly in the midst of the global financial crisis beginning in 2007. He has played a pivotal role in the international gambling regulatory community through the International Association of Gaming Regulators (IAGR) in conferences and bilateral meetings and other communication. Raja was aptly honoured for his contributions at the IAGR Conference held in Singapore last year, despite the fact that he had already demitted office and taken up a new assignment. A testimony to Raja's leadership was the excellence with which the CRA staff hosted the conference. For my part, I had several useful discussions with Raja, particularly as they related to Jamaica's decision to introduce IRD's and he was unstinting in sharing his experience and ideas. I am confident that Raja will continue his solid leadership in his new assignment.”
