What this episode covers

Today's episode is a short keynote episode brought to you by George Yeo. George Yeo is a Singaporean statesman, former Brigadier-General, and distinguished scholar. He served in Singapore's Cabinet for 23 years (1988–2011), holding key ministerial positions including Foreign Affairs, Trade & Industry, Health, and Information & the Arts. I consider him to be one of Singapore's greatest public intellectual in the 21st century and find it my great privilege to call him a friend and mentor. I hope you will learn from this short address as much as I did. This is the 61st episode Of The Front Row Podcast(Yes, even this mini-episode counts. Thank you Mr Yeo for giving us great access to your insights) This keynote was given at The Danube Institute earlier this year.
