Not exactly. Even before this podcast, I felt that beneath the skin, jade is an intelligent and journalistic individual with strong opinions with no holding back on her beliefs. Without jade, this podcast wouldn't have been insightful. Period
wow, you know, you don't have to like this guy but i think some respect for persevering at this for 30 years despite being thrown in jail, bankrupted etc. thanks team for doing this, this is meaningful and pertinent. no, i'm not even a opposition supporter. and kudos to jade for openly saying yeah i went to his book signing, so what
chee soon juan likes focusing on insignificant stuff but missed the big picture altogether. he would have done well in america but singapore is too smart to fall for those issues
@@pepelepew1227 Wow! Where have you been when CSJ has spoken at his rallies and all the protests that he hosted? YOU MUST HAVE BEEN DRIFTING THROUGH LIFE & STAY BLIND N STUPID!
Because thats his identity. If he leave politics and stopped being opposition, he feel that he might be a nobody. At least he is someone even as a constant losing opposition member.
For full context, I am referring to the point discussed between 39:46 to 40:47. I cannot fully agree with Dr CSJ. Most of what he said is true. But because this is such a young audience, people forgot what he did to get himself into all that legal troubles. If CSJ tried to discredit ministers representing the government by presenting fake/unsubstantiated evidence, then he ought to be punished for it. This has nothing to do with "scoring points in a parliamentary debate" and trying to build cordial relationships outside of a parliamentary debate. The simple question we can ask is why then were people like Mr Chiam and Mr Low well-respected opposition leaders who spoke their mind but did not get sued. Also, not forgetting how CSJ backstabbed Mr Chiam. There were questionable things he did which served as red flags to his character and now he is trying to brush it under the carpet and paint himself as a political victim. And may I also say that this podcast is rather biased mainly because Jade is the one leading the narrative. It has moved away from the usual neutral position TDK has taken. Also, here we are using today's political and social view to judge 1990's politics.
Nonsense, the reason chiam and low were tolerated is because with, all due respect, they don't pose a threat. Think about it this way. There is a space called "opposition" in our political structure. If chiam and low don't fill it, someone else will. So it is in the interest of the government to have people who are not dangerous in that space otherwise you have a vacuum and someone like chee could fill that. It's the same reason why a "dissenter" like tommy koh is tolerated. Because he is ultimately ineffective.
Totally agreed, Jade has been leading and steering the course through out the interview with an agenda to influence the operation of CSJ. TDK shld be leading the questioning and be fair and objective on the topic which TDK is doing great except for this episode.
Jade Rasif is a very intelligent and very straight to the point.Dr. Chee has all my respect deserve to be a minister.Welldone guys for this show. This will never be allowed Ten twenty years ago.
As a fellow viewer who has followed Johnathan Chua from Real Talk to The Daily Ketchup Podcast… I’m so glad it has evolved to such an enriching content. It makes me really happy to see new videos and I feel like I could have more open conversations on heavy topics like these amongst friends with different perspectives without taking things personally. Super thankful!!!!!
this guy took the hard road, against all odds and disappointment,he never gave up. when i was young i thought he is one of the bad guys thats always against the government, because thats how media portrays him. but as i grew up, i understand more about our society and give some thoughts of his motive. i glad now theres internet and social media so youngsters can understand more about the current affair and politics in Singapore, rather than relying on the newspaper and tv which is heavily controlled. Really have to respect Dr Chee.
thank you for giving dr chee a platform to voice his views and story!! this is helpful to enlighten gen z that watches this podcast about sg politics. respect to dr chee, he is the voice and hero that this country needs.
Just had this episode on my recommendations… totally blown, unfortunately not in the literal sense, by Jade with her questions. So much substance and thoughts to draw out insightful answer from CSJ. ❤❤
Very good podcast however I felt that the podcast is being cut short and more can be offered from Dr. Chee. Hopefully there will be a follow up podcast. Kudos to jade for the intelligent questions.
I’m one of those people who have been brainwashed to believe that Dr Chee is crazy etc. But I’m glad I gave myself a chance to try to understand his story and what he stands for. What a true patriot!
Really like how balanced this podcast is by providing a neutral platform for various political conversations to occur. Guess that is what "being human" is about.
I actually remember Dr Chee hawking his book “live” in person. Those were the days. Even Mr Jeyaratnam shouting “The Hammer” …. For better or worse , good or bad, the passion and drive of hese men are respectable truly.
Congratulations TEAM you have done Singapore and Singaporeans Proud via a truly Insightful and Purposeful Podcast. If there's one word as a manifestation of Dr Chee, it is RESILIENCE Par Excellence!!!. Congratulations Guys. SG
Jade thank u for coverin up for this episode u show a different side of you and thank you for being yourself always. I admire you for ur bravery and being able to speak up always. Continue to shine on bright like a diamond
Simply respect Dr. Chee. his courage and determination.... I was borned in the 60 and I witnessed a true blue Singaporean that truly I called my hero of Singapore. Thank you Dr. Chee.
Really great episode. This topic may not be as popular as your other juicier episodes and generate as much views, but it’s been one of the most interesting ones! I enjoyed the dynamics between the team, Jade and Dr Chee, and this showed a different side to both Dr Chee and Jade that I didn’t know about before. Jade was really attentively listening to Dr Chee and it was nice to see everyone give Dr Chee a safe space to share his side of the story and experiences. The questions asked were really great, and allowed me not just to know Dr Chee better as a political figure, but as a person. 😊
think i was having lunch with my colleague in 2000s, we saw Dr Chee distributing their party pamphlets, my colleague straight away look away and ask me to ignore him. I was confused as im not into politics. I ask him why are u so afraid of Dr Chee? He said that the newspapers mentioned Dr Chee is a crazy/mad man. During that time internet wasn't as advance compared to todays technology. Anyway I really hope Dr Chee win a seat in the parliament in the next election
That's a frightening thought eh in a democratic society such as Singapore where it takes courage to have an opposition party member appear on a podcast.
I almost have forgotten that women in sg were discriminated by the sg ruling party before. Thanks for highlighting it. Another point not mention was that the poors in sg were also discriminated by the rulling party before with regards to the number of children they should have. Thankfully, those were the days, and not now. But the memories of those days would be part of sg history.
PAP has done a decent job bringing SG to where it is today. I can recognise that some policies have to be tougher, for example policies that ppl may don’t like but looking back 20years on, it’s for the betterment of the country and I’m thankful for what the PAP has done. Dr Chee, yes right that he can share the various values he holds, but at times it’s just untruth or statements which proper fact checking or homework that was not done just to put the other party on a lower stage. I’m sorry, but this is unacceptable to the people.
@@daisylai2991 you then keep dreaming. Nobody say PAP is holy. But what Spore need is a strong party who is willing to do the right and unpopular thing not like the opposite clown nowadays who is out to please you all but don't care about the future of the country
Previously I was not thinking highly of Dr Chee but I have turned my mind now. He is so generous to forgive the political suppression against him. It wins my heart.
Vividly remembered walking by and avoiding Dr Chee selling his book and ringing his 'Salvation Army' bell at Orchard Center Point, thinking he was some kinda bad guy shouting in the air like some kind of wet market vendor ! Many years later, I now perceive more clearly who are the real bad guys.
Without the PAP govt policies on education, housing, CPF, defence, employment, and Foreign Direct Investments, your parents would not have married and you would not be born. Exercise critical thinking before believing Opposition politicians with sweet tongue and vested interests.
Chee soon juan shld join forces with the ruling party to make Singapore a strong nation. Sometimes opposition can be a nuisance if they oppose for opposing sake. Look at USA how divided on internal policies except dealing with foreign countries and waging war, what a united voice they have.
14:19 I actually disagree with this. Purely from an academics standpoint he may appear like a typical PAP candidate, but everything else about him really isn't. He's cleary a pretty smart guy, but his values are very westernised and leftist. Much more of an idealist than a pragmatist (Which is the number 1 typical trait of PAP ministers. They are super pragmatic and do things that feel are right no matter what. And in the past this was insensitive and at the detriment to the minorities) The way he talks emotionally with large tone variations and expressions is nice to listen too but is very reminiscent of politicians from western countries, and different from PAPs no fluff no smoke straight to the point communication style. (Watch how PAP ministers discussed things with each other in parliament in the 90s/2000s) So PAP would not have dared to touch a candidate like Jamus as he's too far from their ideals. Someone who actually genuinely fit PAPs ideals was Chen Show Mao. But he just quietly disappeared, never to be heard of again.
For a long time, the spectre of Chiam hung over Chee. It is doubtful that Chiam was totally the victim and Chee, the perpetrator. But of course, some versions of events took on a life of their own. It's good that things have moved on.
Omg. The person who betrayed his mentor Mr Chiam See Tong and robbed his mentor's party. His mentor also said it out loud in Parliament that Chee soon Juan is a megalomania.
well ....at least he isnt out and about having sex scandals or corruption scandals or whatever unlike...... oh and he wasn't a translator for the japs in world war 2 either, betraying his country while thousands of others are being slaughtered....lol just saying...
@mohdmuzzy4163 if he can betrayed his mentor and robbed his mentor in modern days without life threatening to himself I wonder what can he do to the country and citizens. Also if he could cheat during a hunger strike probably he could cheat other things if he was in power. Corruption? Just saying. Lol
Say what you want about Dr. Chee, credit to him for his strength and perseverance despite what he and his family went through for years. Did he make mistakes? For sure but his mistakes or wrongs were also grossly amplified by the media. I see some old tired talking points about his western, leftist views. Is wanting a fairer and more equitable society only a western / leftist / liberal concept? YT comments is not a place for debate and those who espouse such views aren't likely to change their opinions of him either. And i'll say no more.
Kid, to this day, CSJ has not started any charity hospitals, orphanage or better charity schools. Neither has he built any NGO for the poor and handicapped in SG. Good intentions about "fairness and equitable society" are meaningless without delivering better. CSJ was all propaganda and ideology without positive action.
Within PAP itself, do the members always agree with one another? What if opposition members such as Dr Chee were in PAP, and offer their opinions respectfully to the benefit of the people in Singapore?
His preservanance and never give up deserve Respect, a regret Bt Batok never give him (a long seasoned in politics a chance to prove himself) hope miracle is coming
Yes with due respect to Dr Chee, I think BB n all S'poreans shld, afterall he is intellectually well articulated than most MNTRs/MPs etc in d Parliament.
Great ketchup as usual! Highlight of this episode was by far John's indulgent boba ASMR. The succulence of the pearls shined through with every chewy bite in what is undoubtedly a finely brewed beverage, which parallels the deep and meaningful conversation on life and politics between 5 intelligent people, creating a truly visceral podcast experience. Verdict: 4 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Typically up close and personal as you would expect from a Daily Ketchup Show, interesting stories aplenty. Disclaimer: High fidelity chewing sounds may induce misophonia, viewer discretion is advised. - Jokes aside, loved this episode
Back then 90s SG life was good, diploma 3k and graduates 5k get high salary enough to pay for a 5 room flat which costs 100k+ and condo 500k, so there was not a need to oppose...there were much less immigrants. Other countries' like china's development really put so much pressure on sg govt.
Hummmm...this is interesting.... "what is legal, may not be right... what is illegal, may not be wrong..." :) Am deeply touch by loving, powerful and beautiful heart of a dad... " I m rich because I have you..." is not about having millions dollars salary.... :) Cafe is also a catalyse for Art movements to flourish... eg Impressionism and Cubism Thank you for reaching out and serving the poor, elderly and weak...
In PAP’s camp, the mudslinging is in, well, full swing. Throw in character assassination and lowblows into that mix too and it would really make the Bukit Batok resident wonder if all the grandiose Parliamentary speeches about ‘Constructive Politics‘ that these very men and women once delivered were merely for show. During the first PAP rally held in Bukit Batok Stadium on Friday evening, a chunk of the speeches from Minister Grace Fu and Mdm Halimah Yacob was dedicated to disparaging Dr Chee. Minister Fu’s words were, to say the least, contrary to her portfolio as the Minister for Culture and Community, Dr Chee hopes to be a full-time MP, but you should note he’s not actually giving up a full-time job. As far as I know, he hasn’t held a steady job for many years. Let me be clear. I’m not criticizing his position to not hold a full-time job for so long. That is his personal choice. But the work experience, or the lack of it, is a relevant fact when we consider the credentials of the candidate. In a move that was anything but graceful, she even asked Dr Chee if he had a “referral letter from Mr Chiam See Tong.” Perhaps she, just like her fellow Minister, Vivian Balakrishan, should be schooled by Dr PJ Thum on the ‘history of backstabbing.’
When someone is in the room, address the person using his or her name rather than the impersonal "him" or "he". It is rather rude not acknowledge someone, especially a guest. This is not a criticism; just an observation.
LKY was right but not political right. Chee Soon Chuan was wrong and also political wrong. Been observing, watching Singapore and the political development since the 70s till today. Singapore is what it is today because of LKY, Singapore rich human resources and the common uniting language, beautiful Singlish !. Soon Chuan was sponsored and donated from foreign interference.
plenty of people joined the PAP, some join without understanding the values of the party, thinking it is a social movement. to then say that "I was invited to join the Young PAP", is such a buey paiseh comment. It's not like he was invited to stand for elections as a PAP candidate. I was invited to join SDP and NSP on the streets just like how many SDP, NSP members were recruited. Do I know go around blowing the horn that I was invited to join SDP? Even being invited to tea sessions is not a big deal, I personally know a certain 1x opposition party leader who failed the tea session and immediately went cozying up to an already old an frail former opposition MP so that he could stand for elections with a ready flag. failed to win and left the scene. Jade Rasif doesn't know what she's talking about re: the party whip. PAP MPs air their differing views in parliament regarding policies all the time. It is allowed. The party whip simply requires all MPs to take the same stance when it is time to implement vote and implement the policy. This is what it takes to be a party.
Can Dr Chee become the Anwar of S'pore? We won't know until pple give him a chance to go into Parliament to fight for the interest of S'poreans... Good to see that Jade is so politically aware...
Dr Chee + Jade Rasif must be the most random and unexpected podcast duo

Just saw this, Jade is diplomatic and corrects some style of questioning. Hence put the interviewee at ease. Well done Jade.

Very good podcast however I felt that the podcast is being cut short and more can be offered from Dr. Chee. Hopefully there will be a follow up podcast. Kudos to jade for the intelligent questions.
Want more of CSJ? Go watch SDP videos and his speeches.

Definitely wasn't expecting this guest along with Jade but thanks for inviting Dr. Chee! This was a great episode. I hope more people will watch this.
I think jade has been promoting Dr Chee or at least supporting sdp forever since I think it sparked off with the 377a ruling (I may be wrong)
Really like how balanced this podcast is by providing a neutral platform for various political conversations to occur. Guess that is what "being human" is about.
I actually remember Dr Chee hawking his book “live” in person. Those were the days. Even Mr Jeyaratnam shouting “The Hammer” …. For better or worse , good or bad, the passion and drive of hese men are respectable truly.
Excellent from Dr Chee, can we get Mr Pritam Singh next?
Great shout.
That could be very interesting, 'coz like Dr Chee, PS speaks with commitment, clarity n compassion.

Dr Chee has changed so much
Don't be fool by him. If he was to change pigs will fly
Follow your rules.
In PAP’s camp, the mudslinging is in, well, full swing. Throw in character assassination and lowblows into that mix too and it would really make the Bukit Batok resident wonder if all the grandiose Parliamentary speeches about ‘Constructive Politics‘ that these very men and women once delivered were merely for show. During the first PAP rally held in Bukit Batok Stadium on Friday evening, a chunk of the speeches from Minister Grace Fu and Mdm Halimah Yacob was dedicated to disparaging Dr Chee. Minister Fu’s words were, to say the least, contrary to her portfolio as the Minister for Culture and Community,
Dr Chee hopes to be a full-time MP, but you should note he’s not actually giving up a full-time job. As far as I know, he hasn’t held a steady job for many years. Let me be clear. I’m not criticizing his position to not hold a full-time job for so long. That is his personal choice. But the work experience, or the lack of it, is a relevant fact when we consider the credentials of the candidate.
In a move that was anything but graceful, she even asked Dr Chee if he had a “referral letter from Mr Chiam See Tong.” Perhaps she, just like her fellow Minister, Vivian Balakrishan, should be schooled by Dr PJ Thum on the ‘history of backstabbing.’
When someone is in the room, address the person using his or her name rather than the impersonal "him" or "he". It is rather rude not acknowledge someone, especially a guest. This is not a criticism; just an observation.
Great episode and discussion 👏 👏
‘Laying the foundations’ - Indeed, sacrificed way too much.
LKY was right but not political right. Chee Soon Chuan was wrong and also political wrong. Been observing, watching Singapore and the political development since the 70s till today. Singapore is what it is today because of LKY, Singapore rich human resources and the common uniting language, beautiful Singlish !. Soon Chuan was sponsored and donated from foreign interference.
All Credit Solely to LKY ? …. Utter Rubbish 😂😂😂
Omg I like Jade so much more after this ep! Go girl! I heart dr Chee too. He has my vote if I live in the west. Go dr chee!
Human right 👍✌️🙏
Pushback...
Chee is articulate...
THIS IS WHY JADE RASIF WAS SO WORRIED ABOUT HER TOP HAHAHAH
Wow I’m really seeing him in a different light now. Great epi!
plenty of people joined the PAP, some join without understanding the values of the party, thinking it is a social movement. to then say that "I was invited to join the Young PAP", is such a buey paiseh comment. It's not like he was invited to stand for elections as a PAP candidate. I was invited to join SDP and NSP on the streets just like how many SDP, NSP members were recruited. Do I know go around blowing the horn that I was invited to join SDP? Even being invited to tea sessions is not a big deal, I personally know a certain 1x opposition party leader who failed the tea session and immediately went cozying up to an already old an frail former opposition MP so that he could stand for elections with a ready flag. failed to win and left the scene.
Jade Rasif doesn't know what she's talking about re: the party whip. PAP MPs air their differing views in parliament regarding policies all the time. It is allowed. The party whip simply requires all MPs to take the same stance when it is time to implement vote and implement the policy. This is what it takes to be a party.
Yo Daily Ketchup gang. Just really curious, what made you guys invite Dr Chee?
Side note, I really enjoyed listening to Jade and appreciate her being there with Dr Chee
expand viewership. too many singkies watching this show.
Invite Pritam pls.
The racial agreement must be maintained at all costs. Easy to incite but difficult to maintain peace.
Pritam Singh next!
can invite lawrence wong and dr chee together on the podcast mah
that one can of red bull was barely sufficient to keep john paul awake. hope he is alright man.
i like him now better bcs back than media blacklist him and i don't know why but so much hate and anger. He is kinda wise actually.
better check his credit alert
Can Dr Chee become the Anwar of S'pore?
We won't know until pple give him a chance to go into Parliament to fight for the interest of S'poreans...
Good to see that Jade is so politically aware...
What exactly can CSJ deliver better than PAP govt? USA liberal-rights-democracy propaganda does not assure you a high paying job, hor.
Quite tough...the lighting party will always want to paint him in bad light on shitty times.
@@arsenal_84 he is not even to the standard of Anwar. pAP is not like the Malaysia UMNO.
Jade going fan girl for Dr Chee
Jade’s questions are very interesting
Huge respect
