At a panel discussion on future skills featuring an appearance by Minister Chan Chun Sing, a straw poll showed that a majority of the attendees were only “slightly confident” that their skills would be relevant in a few years' time, while 19% expressed that they were “not confident”. How should we interpret this data point about the SG workforce?

In another twist in the Raeesah Khan saga, former MP Yaw Shin Leong came out on Facebook to dispute Pritam Singh’s account of events surrounding his expulsion from WP in 2012. Who’s telling the truth? Elsewhere, a Sugarbook user complained to the MOE about a teacher who allegedly advertised herself on the platform as a “sugar baby”, saying that teachers should be held to a “higher standard”. Is it wrong for an educator to moonlight as a “sugar baby”?   Find us here!

On Friday evening, an interim report featuring Raeesah Khan’s testimony was released by the Committee of Privileges, and it painted the Workers’ Party in a bad light. Most damning of all was that the WP leadership allegedly asked Khan to keep up her lie in Parliament. We dissect the report and her explosive testimony.

Workers’ Party MP Raeesah Khan abruptly resigned from her position as an MP and from the party on Tuesday afternoon, just hours before she was due to face an internal disciplinary hearing. WP’s leaders came out with the details of what happened, and it turns out that they knew of Khan’s lies a lot earlier than the public. How did this happen? Also, Singapore tied with Paris in second place on The Economist’s list of most expensive cities in the world, only behind Tel Aviv.

In the past week, a new variant of COVID was identified in South Africa, and it was named the Omicron variant. The CEO of Moderna has said that the current vaccines are likely to be less effective against this variant, and several countries have shut their borders to prevent its spread. What about here in SG?

Finance Minister Lawrence Wong discusses identity politics and tribalism in Singapore, emphasizing the need to address concerns of all communities while avoiding tribalism in politics. The podcast also explores the replacement of the traditional 5BX exercises in the SG Army with a more structured stretching regime, impacting soldiers' morning routines.

Protests broke out across Europe over the past weekend, as Belgium, Netherlands, Italy, Austria, Switzerland and Denmark all saw demonstrations against the latest COVID restrictions meant to curb the “fourth wave” of the virus hitting Europe. We compare the situation in these countries with that of SG. Also, we discuss the results of a Pew Research Center study that surveyed what people in different countries find meaning in.
