- This week, Singapore witnessed the historic handover of the PM role from Lee Hsien Loong to Lawrence Wong, which happened on a balmy Wednesday evening at the Istana grounds. What was unique, interesting, and strange about this once-in-a-generation swearing-in ceremony? Elsewhere, an advertisement peddling a “Masterclass in Leadership” featuring Tan Chuan-Jin received flak online, to the point the ad was removed. Is the criticism fair? Why should anyone begrudge him making an honest living?

Interesting take on PM's inauguration ceremony! It made for easy listening after a day at work and some parts had me chuckling along.
I wanted to point out a clever word-play Tharman had masterfully inserted into his speech when he affirmed his confidence in LW's leadership but that he's his own person and "will no doubt do so in his own rhythm and beat." I noticed the glimpse of a smile just a nano second before he uttered the words and it all made sense to me. Lawrence Wong, music, leadership - they are all of the same package of the man that he is.
I am sure Terence would appreciate the linguistic humour amidst such a solemn and official event.
I noticed that too! Tharman quite the wordsmith
You think too much lah🤭
Good episode guys. Thanks for your candid perspectives laced with good ol' humour.
TCJ should open a leadership in Piak Piak Affairs, encouraging couples to be more active after offices hours to increase Singapore birthrate productivity. His business will flourish for sure.
Spare a thought for his family. Let him move on.
Piak piak piak piak piak.
Did Mah Bow attend the swearing? Really $50m?
Maybe LW can reshuffle the PSC and Civil service hiring process
Great podcast as always. i think you guys missed out an important insight- which came out in the news recently. Apparently when all the 4G leaders were interviewed- everyone was asked to pick a leader other than themselves. Apparently 17-18 people were interviewed, 15 votes went to LW. So the guy said that no one received more than 2 votes other than LW. I mean this is all great but that means for whatever reason if LW is not there or can't continue as PM, there might be a leadership crisis due to lack of consensus.
We don't need audit this figure 🫣
@@LonganLee i feel the number might be correct. Everyone voted for LW because he was the underdog (and maybe capable/like-able, relatable). No one probably realized he would end up being the PM. But i couldn't be happier - he is probably the most well spoken among all 4G leaders. Of course it wont be easy to fill in the big shoes of LHL. But he has over 25+ years of training, so we must give LW time.
@@user-yb9dl6ok9r you mean the fact remains we don't know who audited this figure? So basing only believing or trust means one can also don't believe? This is kinda unsatisfactory, not shiok you know what I mean?
@@LonganLee fair point!
🤣🤣…Haresh!…a Master Class in Humility will be the Much needed one!☺️…..Narcissism Course 0😜😂!
Can skillsfuture have a course called How to be a LKY? It can charge $5m per pax. We need one per generation. In fact 2 per cabinet so that they can backup each other.
Also have a course where upon completion can produce a Olympic Swimming World record holder or a Steve Jobs and Bill Gates and Warren Buffett and Tony Stark
👍👍👍
Where is TCJ now? Did he attend the swearing? 👀 If i were him, i would open a adventure training school, a gym or running school, or camping school like OBS since he army guy
Wondered why the audience had to sit so close to each other. Looked awkward.
I need a course on How to Betray Trust of your wife and children and residents but never get caught
Definitely dont go to TAN the cheater
@@Humorousguy64You mean take the course called MasterClass in Leadership ? I do my master Bed better. It's been so long I do my bed👀👀🏳️🤭🫣🤭
Thank you bro .im just share want is true ,im hope who need to know about horse racing 🏇🔑🏇🔐🌊🗝🌊🤵im not so clever but dont ,k.k. if me in my home 🏇
If courses can solve talent issue, sg would have trained a new LKY by now. Also Einstein
Recieved so many tickets as give? Hahaha
How does Tin Pei, JTeo compare with his wife? 🤭👀👀🤣🤣🏳️
Hello fellow yah lah butters, I may have an unpopular opinion mush contrary to popular belief it is not right for a politician to vacate office for personal transgressions. Yes in the case of political office holders who are being investigated for graft or who are leaving for personal health reasons. The reason being it is unfair to the voters who are the real victims of the story. They have voted for a candidate in hopes of them helping make their lives better but then have to settle for a covering or surrogate mp to manage their issues. I believe the mp who have been unfaithful should still be allowed to at least serve their constituency away from public limelight till the next elections before respectfully bowing out for their successor. It would be a sign that our society is growing in maturity that these issues happens from time to time. In my humble opinion of course.😊
If a person can easily be led away by lust, there is a risk that he will fall into traps set by female spies from other countries. That will be a threat to Sg. It is no longer a private matter, It is about a person's flaw character which increases the risk of being made use by foreign countries.
TCJ made the choice to leave public service on his own accord and vanished.
How about public servants ? Are they allowed to deal with close friends in gov contracts and accept gifts from them including from millionaires and billionaires and not just limited to trillionaires? I not sure to any of the questions. Just the asking onlys
@@ewmurphy Debatable, the situation is still unclear , people resign under a lot pressure after a lot of arm twisting not on their own accord . Though on the outside it may seem like it’s their own accord.
@@LonganLee not sure about that, need to ask someone in the civil sector
On the topic of TCJ, I am of the opinion that he, like most people, deserves a second chance. He, being in his mid 50s, still has a few more decades to go in life and shouldn't be given a "life sentence imprisonment in the realm of eternal cancellation." BUT this move to conduct such a masterclass felt too soon; it wasn't even a year since he resigned! And the topics covered were ultra tone-deaf and ironic, naturally and understandably inviting all the mockery that came after. Perhaps he could take a leaf from NOC's Sylvia who, after a 2-year hiatus, came back to the public eye presenting herself as a life coach. I wouldn't comment further on whether she was truly sorry or had utterly repented or not, but I thought her comeback was pretty well executed (via a podcast series) and therefore created relatively less commotion. The most brilliant thing is that as a life coach now, she can position herself as someone who has gone through a really bad crisis (both career & matrimonial) and managed to slowly walk out of it. TCJ's sharing in the masterclass or any other setting now still feels very premature and empty because he has not yet truly addressed those issues on a personal capacity (as pointed out in the podcast, he just disappeared) or display in some way that he has truly reflected/repented/learnt his lessons. Or maybe he did learn the lessons and is now charging $1,090 (that $90 is probably GST) to whoever is interested in listening to those lessons. Long story short - maybe he needs to consider hiring a publicist to help him redo his redemption story & journey OR just continue to stay low earning a livelihood that doesn't require him to be in the limelight (like many cases before him).
Hes been cheating on all Singaporean and getting high salary using tax payer money ...didnt even say sorry or shows sadness.....how can give him 2nd chance to have another cheat???
@@Humorousguy64 Right.
First you need to walk the talk. Let you experience being Betrayed and you then can show people you forgive the betrayer. So how? Want a debate?
I don't get the TCJ flak. The guy needs to earn his $ from somewhere😂😊
Do his parent or parents feel he lost a great fortune of a career? 👀🏳️🫣😅
Really not a wise move to be involved in such a public course, especially on leadership - just asking to be ridiculed by detractors. Can still do other meaningful work or earn money without being so high profile.
@@do3077 maybe some perceive that everything can be taught like creativity as great as Einstein or Steve Jobs. Misguided understanding of talent. Yes, there can be a course for anything but it does not mean you can get the results like duplicate an Einstein or LKY or Steve Jobs
Raisah Khan can run masterclasses on integrity too.
@@windydragon6522But whiter than white when not is more of a concern
Not gonna lie, Grace Fu's outfit colour combi looks like The Joker, just without the clown make up 🤣I also don't get the point of the singing after the ceremony, a bit random macam suddenly become like NDP or something. And regarding TCJ, it's not so much of where he needs to earn his $, I mean yeah I get that he needs to do that but it's just how he did it shamelessly, like how Terence has said it in this podcast. I feel like his actions are very similar to a narcissistic sociopath.
Miss SG should be Amy👀
Clown but getting high salary ...no personality n ideas
It’s odd when you guys commented on the sustainability ladies and totally missed out on how the internet was mesmerized by the PM spouse… hahaha
and for TCJ, the fact that the company and TCJ agreed to choose the topic, just shows the circle of people he has around him that is out of sync with the public sentiments, like him
Aiyoh guys, u talked all the boring nitty gritties except about PM's enigmatic wife who stood out from all the lady ministers and "first lady"! 😆
Maybe her boss should promote her and let her handle the trillionaires customers
@@LonganLee She is the shadow Minister of Finance for her husband in managing SG monies....
@@ewmurphy really? Can invent a better Financial Instrument than CPF? I don't mean the locking up of savings and releasing only at a fixed old age where human lifespans and health conditions and fortunes differ? One size fits all
@@LonganLee Sure! After chasing out all the old school guards after GE!
@@ewmurphy I just hope KShan and V.Bala continue to stay in Ridout grand houses by remaining in the cabinet. They must not step down becos I fear my beloved PAP unable to be as strong without these gift of the gabbers🤭👀🫣👀😱.
Maybe SkilledFutures can have a course called Cloning KShan and V.Bala. We can have 5 sets each to serve the cabinet for the next 100 years and hopefully clone a dozen LKY by producing them from courses. Just teach and talents can be produced right? Have a course called Become Bill Gates and Warren Buffett. Only first class honours grads from these courses will be shortlisted into the kitchen cabinet. My backside itching to want to apply for Mistress of Leaderships and adultery
Tan should have a LOVE BEHIND CURTAIN master class lesson ..hahaha...person without trust teaching abt Trust?
His ex wife got congratulate him? Appeared at the swearing? Who is she with now?
I love political satire but this one is neither classy or even funny. This is just my opinion.
I wont say Iswaran must have done any wrong since its not a closed case. If indeed a public servant is allowed to do deals with close friends and receive gifts from them because they are close friends，i would also support this because right or wrong is subjective. If it is allowed, i will be running for this GE. I am very friendly and loves to be close friends with not millionaires but Billionaires. So help me god. Which god? I cannot say.🤭👀🫣🏳️😱
