Interserve Board
Dr Eric Yap
Chairperson
Eric considers himself a local tentmaker - doing research and teaching as a professor in a medical school and serving as a pioneering member of Mustard Seed Community Church. Having a heart for the needy in the region, Eric co-founded a Christian charity in the Philippines. He develops advanced medical technologies to provide healthcare and aid for low-resource countries. Eric identifies with the Interserve mission of caring holistically for an individual's medical, financial and spiritual needs.

Ps Andrew Raman
Vice-Chairperson
Ps. Andrew is a pastor at St John’s-St Margaret’s (Anglican) Church. He has been married to Doreen for 35 years. He believes that the Great Commission is the key mandate of all believers and that the greater focus should be on people groups that are unreached. Ps. Andrew’s key decision to serve on the Board is largely because Interserve focuses on people groups that are considered unreached. He has been encouraged that there is a strong emphasis on faith and obedience to where God wants us to be – trusting the Lord in the presence of danger. He is also drawn to Interserve because he has seen many young people attracted to serve God passionately through the organisation.
