#497 ft. Jacky Ng - Did MOE Really Need Lessons on Israel-Hamas? & Leong Mun Wai Steps Down as PSP Chief

from Yah Lah But · host Ministry of Funny

This week, we got comedian Jacky Ng in the studio to talk about his upcoming hour-long standup performance, and to contribute his thoughts on a couple of funny (OK, maybe not-SO-funny) topics. Concerns arose last week when it was revealed that schools have been teaching students about the conflict in Gaza via their Character and Citizenship Education (CCE) lessons. The slides from the lessons were also heavily criticised for oversimplifying the issue. We went through the slides to see what MOE could have done better. Elsewhere, the PSP also announced that Leong Mun Wai would be stepping down as secretary-general of the party, as part of the fallout from the POFMA directive he received. Will this change the face of opposition politics in Singapore?(00:00) A message from Folklory(01:07) Intro(16:40) Did MOE Really Need Lesson on Israel-Hamas(48:56) Leong Mun Wai No Longer PSP Chief(01:02:13) One Shiok ThingFind us here!YLB SubredditYLB TikTokYLB IGYLB YouTubeFolkloryLooking for the perfect gift?

Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention. Join leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers as they share not what made them — but what’s actively shaping them, now and next.
