In the second part of our exploration of Singapore we hear more about the individuals that have moulded and shaped Singapore over the last fifty to sixty years.

We discover the distinctly Singaporean approach to governance that has emerged. Compared to some of the other cities we explore in this series, there is a very prominent set of ‘acquired’ traits that came with Singaporean leadership and the people who have chosen to make this place their home.

We hear from Professor Cheong Koon Hean, Dr Liu Thai Ker, Professor Khoo Teng Chye and Professor Kishore Mahbubani. We are extremely grateful to this group of experts who have been enormously influential in shaping Singapore in many ways over their careers.
