Episode description

PM Lawrence Wong’s first Cabinet reshuffle is here—and while it includes new faces, many Singaporeans are asking whether it signals real change or safe stability. We break down the key promotions, political signals, and the continued dominance of public sector picks. Then, we turn to the viral photos of Yale-NUS books being discarded in recycling bins, sparking public outrage. Was it a logistics problem, a communications failure, or a symptom of something deeper about how institutions close chapters in Singapore?
