"If ever there was a moment in Singapore’s history when we needed an inspirational figure as President, this is it. Few Singaporeans inspire respect in the way that Tharman does." — Professor Kishore Mahbubani, Veteran Diplomat

First, Prof Mahbubani said it would “help to have a President who is globally respected” as he drew on his extensive knowledge of geopolitics spanning over fifty years and predicted that Singapore and the greater Southeast Asia region will face imminent geopolitical challenges in the next decade. “If ever there was a moment in Singapore’s history when we needed an inspirational figure as President, this is it. Few Singaporeans inspire respect in the way that Tharman does.
