Politics: KJ and the tougher path JB Jeyaretnam (JBJ), then with the Workers’ Party (WP), broke the parliamentary monopoly of the ruling People’s Action Party (PAP) in 1981. For his willingness to challenge Lee Kuan Yew, he was lionised in many quarters but demonised by the state. So much so that Kenneth, his older son, found it difficult getting a job. “After I graduated [in economics from Cambridge] in 1983—which w…

National news — a classification, not a measurement. An on-box language model (Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-FP8, prompt version 1) read this channel’s own recent posts on 18 September 2026 and assigned it the closest of 31 fixed categories, at 82% confidence. This is a model’s judgement about what the channel is likely to be about, not a fact this register measured the way a subscriber count or a view count is measured — it can be revised on a later pass, and it carries no weight anywhere else on this page. How this classification works, and why it has no browse page of its own yet.

18 posts held, back to 25 February 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 page of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 18 posts for this entry, the most recent from 27 July 2026. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.

Society: Poor ministers defamed Few public figures are as polarising as K Shanmugam, Singapore’s fearsome home affairs minister. For over three years, his housing has been under scrutiny. First were revelations that he’s been renting from the government a palatial colonial bungalow on Ridout Road; and subsequently that he sold a good class bungalow (GCB) on Astrid Hill for S$88m, or almost 150 times the value of a me…
Some further reading: Lim’s entire judgement, particularly her discussion of the Reynolds privilege, a development of the common law defence of qualified privilege in England, which the defence had argued they can rely on (she disagreed), and which touches on the balance between constitutional free speech and protection of reputation. She ordered Bloomberg to retract its original article but a copy remains visible at…
Found some time and space these past two weeks to write about food, an area I feel Jom should be doing a lot more in. Yakult and the microbiome last week, and the return of pig's blood (hooray) to our tables this week. Food: Suckers for blood South-east Asians love blood. Coagulated, tofu-like chunks of pig’s or duck’s blood float up in all manner of Thai soups, often gobbled up first thing in the morning. Laotian l…

Society: It’s the cockroaches Indians again Disinformation divides. From Russia’s attempts to drive a wedge between blacks and whites before the US presidential election in 2016—“intentionally pouring gasoline on racial division”, said one analyst—to China’s efforts to demonise Ukrainians as Nazis, sophisticated psyops globally destabilise societies by exploiting ethnic caricatures or divisions. Amidst the recently c…

We've been discussing the above story, Pritam, WP, etc on our new Jom on Tele channel. Do join that if you'd like to see/join the convo! https://t.me/jomontelegram (Don't think I'll be opening this personal channel to comments anytime soon, just unsure if i have the time to monitor and moderate, that's all....)
Raeesah, who floated into Parliament citing American activist Angela Davis and criticising policing, represents the party’s dalliance with what’s come to be known, often derogatorily, as wokeism. In the annals of the global anti-woke backlash that’s helped elevate Trump 2.0 and others, the convoluted struggles of one Singaporean politician will hardly register. Sebagai api dalam sekam, like fire smouldering in padi h…
Politics: One smouldering Raeesah Shangri-La in Orchard, and an inferno in Geylang. Almost five years after Raeesah Khan, then MP with the Workers’ Party (WP), lied in Parliament, Pritam Singh, WP secretary-general, is still dealing with the fallout. This week, somebody leaked a notice to CNA about a special cadres conference on June 28th, “arising from a requisition from 25 cadre members”, or about a quarter of the …
Jom now has an official Tele group! Our recent Tele Book Club, featuring Unease by Teo You Yenn, was such a success that we've decided to try sparking conversations about our weekly content as well. Once a week, we’ll post articles/blurbs there for us to talk about. Look out for the first one, “The Fight for Singapore’s Wild Spaces”, which looks at ecology, land use, and environmental activism in SG. We published i…
Showing the 12 most recent of 18 posts we hold for @sudhirtv77. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Mentions
Names
Channels on the register whose handles appear in this channel's posts.
A mention is a weaker signal than a forward and is counted separately for that reason — naming a channel is not republishing it, and a handle in a post body is easy to place deliberately. The post counts beside each row below are distinct posts in which the handle appeared, from posts we have read on both sides — the “Named by N registered channels” figure above is a different count, of distinct NAMING CHANNELS rather than posts, and is not the sum of the rows under it.
