In this candid conversation that took place right after the Writ of Election was issued, former PAP MP and serial entrepreneur Inderjit Singh joins us to reflect on his time in Parliament, his business journey, and his outspoken and controversial views on key policies. And given the upcoming election, we tackle the big question about PAP MPs on everyone’s minds: is it possible to speak out from within? From calling out “growth at all costs” economics to clashing with Cabinet members behind the scenes, Inderjit reveals what it really takes to challenge the system from within. He also weighs in on the new candidates from both sides, Singapore’s evolving political culture, and why housing and cost of living will dominate election conversations.
