Being named after another politician, it seems to be no surprise that our guest, Walid Jumblatt has started a podcast like Teh Tarik With Walid. Current based in one of the top university in Singapore, Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Assistant Professor. Walid Jumblatt has always been interested in politics specifically politics in the South East Asian region.
He explains the essence of Singapore modern politics and the pitfalls of not accepting the results of a democratic process when you don’t agree with it. He recalls the time when having a chat with various prolific people on his podcast, the guests’ response and how it has changed his world view. The fun part of being a podcaster is to be a “journalist”. We talked about difficult questions, the job of being part of the media scene and the outsiders of the mainstream media and not getting swooned with politicians
Although the ideological differences, the thing that we can totally agree with is the power of freedom of speech. Walid dissects the importance Freedom of Speech and Expression in the modern democratic society and explained the nuance of fairness on how the Government view fairness in society. What happens if people are offended by the idea of criticism of their own faith? Is criticism and questioning the prophet wrong according to Quran? Walid has explains his confidence in his Islamic faith.
One of his many hats, is to nurture the new generation. We discuss the difficulties and especially being the shaper of minds in a topic that can be divisive and what are the tools that he has tackling the issue.
