CONSUL GENERAL OF ISRAEL TO SOUTH INDIA, POSTED IN BENGALURU, TAMMY BEN-HAIM WISHES EVERYONE A HAPPY ISRAELI NEW YEAR THAT IS CELEBRATED IN SEPTEMBER IN THIS EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW
NAMITA GUPTA
HAPPY ROSH HASHANAH

Tammy Ben-Haim has had a globe-spanning career as a diplomat in the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Her first posting was Advisor for Political Affairs in the Embassy of Israel to India, New Delhi, then in Greece where she served as Deputy Ambassador, from there to Washington DC where is was Minister for Public Diplomacy and back to India, this time Consul General in Bengaluru.

Before joining the Foreign Ministry, Tammy worked in the Ministry of Environmental Protection, the Ministry of Finance, and in the Finance Committee of the Knesset, Israel's parliament. She also worked as an advisor to several lawmakers in the Knesset.

How did you become a Consul General? Where did you study and how has your experience been?

The short answer to the question is that I was lucky. I have a Master's Degree in International Relations from the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. I was serving at the Embassy of Israel in Washington DC as Minister for Public Diplomacy and was in charge of the biggest division of the Ministry in the Embassy when I was told that HQ was looking for a new Consul General for South India. As I have always wanted to come back to live and be posted in India, I started making a few calls, that resulted in my posting here directly from the USA.

Which are the places you have served at before moving to India?
