Показать описание
In the second episode of The Assembly, President Tharman Shanmugaratnam steps into unfamiliar territory, engaging with neurodivergent "journalists" in a no-holds-barred conversation.

From a frugal childhood shaped by his formidable mother to candid reflections on the dynamics of his marriage—and even revealing the one uneconomical purchase this well-known economist has made—President Tharman doesn’t shy away from the personal. He delves into the passions that drive him, what makes him lose his cool, and what happens if the president doesn’t agree with the prime minister.

The person who shared about his past tragic experience with his dad made me emotional. Hugs to you! You are such a brave and an amazing man.
If I can just embrace you all. May we all win and be happy in life.
