Description

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.
