Following our earlier conversation with former nominated member of parliament Anthea Ong on the current state of mental health and well-being in Singapore, we invited her back to chat about her stint in parliament. In particular, we discussed a 2022 book she edited, which gathered the perspectives and personal reflections of 20 past and present NMPs.
We previously hosted Anthea on this podcast in 2020 and 2021:
- Mental health: Awareness, acceptance, and action (A conversation with NMP Anthea Ong)
- “Are we listening?”: Coalescing around downstream and upstream mental health action (Anthea Ong; COVID-19, one year on)
- #AreWeOkay and the proposal for a Mental Wellbeing and Sustainable Development Office in Singapore
Climate and environmental issues as election issues (with Bertrand Seah) – socialservice.sg presents: "Before the Ballot"
