Egypt maintained relations until 1956, when [[Gamal Abdel Nasser]] cut off relations and recognised the PRC. [[Ma Bufang]], who was then living in Egypt, was ordered to move to Saudi Arabia, and became the ROC ambassador to Saudi Arabia. [[Saudi Arabia]] ended its diplomatic relations with the ROC in 1990. Ambassador Wang Shi-ming was a Chinese Muslim, and the ROC ambassador to [[Kuwait]].<ref>{{cite news|author=Peter G.
