The second city on our voyage of discovery is Singapore: the little red dot in South East Asia that tells one of the world's most unusual and successful stories of modern nation building. Singapore’s independence in 1965 unleashed five decades of innovation that have resulted in an unforeseeable transformation.
In this episode, we learn about the program of rapid problem-solving that was pursued by Singapore's visionary founding decision-makers and the vulnerabilities they were forced to mitigate.
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.
