The IBR Asia Group Expands Regionally with Singapore Partner Link To Asia

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 1 September 2026 – The Honourable Dato' Beatrice Maria Nirmala, Honorary Consul of Nicaragua to Malaysia and Group Managing Director of The IBR Asia Group, is expanding the Malaysian-founded strategic communications and influence consultancy's international presence with Singaporean company Link To Asia.



This partnership will support governments, institutions, international organisations and businesses seeking to strengthen strategic communications, develop international partnerships, explore market opportunities and advance cross-border initiatives.

The Singapore platform combines Link To Asia's capabilities in government project consultancy, market-entry advisory and, international partnerships, with The IBR Asia Group's established expertise in strategic communications, public relations, reputation management, media relations and stakeholder engagement.

"The next chapter of Asia will not be defined by borders, but by the strength of the connections we build across them. Singapore is one of the world's great gateways — a global business and financial centre where Asia meets the world.

"This strategic partnership will allow us to create a stronger platform to engage governments, institutions, businesses and international organisations across the region," said The Honourable Dato' Beatrice Maria Nirmala, Honorary Consul of Nicaragua to Malaysia and Group Managing Director of The IBR Asia Group.

Based in Singapore, Link To Asia, founded by Mr. Tevadass Thangevelloo has been supporting governments, institutions and international organisations in turning cross-border opportunities into well-structured, locally relevant initiatives, with a focus on government engagement, market intelligence, institutional partnerships and project coordination.

This expansion strengthens The IBR Asia Group's presence in Singapore and provides a platform for developing relationships and opportunities across Southeast Asia and international markets.

"The strength of Singapore is its ability to connect people, institutions and opportunities across Asia. Link To Asia provides a practical platform through which we can develop these connections and help organisations move from opportunities towards structured engagement and partnerships," said Mr. Tevadas R. Thangavelloo, Founder of Link To Asia.

With Singapore as a gateway to regional and global markets, Link To Asia marks the next step in The IBR Asia Group's international expansion to strengthen its global influence through communications, relationships and opportunities across Asia, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Europe, North America and Latin America.
