    Henrick Z. Tsjeng is a Associate Research Fellow at the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies (NTU, Singapore) since August 2013, where he focuses on Asia-Pacific geopolitical and security issues. From 2011 to 2013, he was a researcher at the Singapore Institute of International Affairs, where he conducted research and analysis on topical issues such as the South China Sea disputes, ASEAN politics, U.S.-China matters and environmental concerns. He has written numerous commentaries on these issues in local newspapers, and also helped to organise small and large scale events. Before joining the Singapore Institute of International Affairs, Mr Tsjeng took on various positions in the United States after graduating from Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs with a Master in International Affairs in 2010, including brief stints at the National Committee on American Foreign Policy, the United Nations, as well as Carbon Credit Capital, a carbon finance and project advisory company.
