Episode 3: PN Balji, Singapore's "Reluctant Editor"


Listen Later

In this episode, we interview Singaporean path-breaking veteran journalist, media consultant and author PN Balji. At 70, Balji recently published a book ("Reluctant Editor," Marshall Cavendish International, 2019) on his memoirs as a journalist during the regime of Lee Kuan Yew, founding father of modern Singapore and the island republic's first Prime Minister. In this discussion we discuss Balji's "love-hate" relationship with LKY, press freedom and the state of journalism today. We also talk about how Balji "retired" from working as a full time journalist at the age of 53 and how building a personal brand prepared him for his post-journalism career.
