Why is Philosophy Important?


Listen Later

For some, philosophy conjures images of ancient bearded Greeks, dense books and strings of big words that just don’t make sense. They might even think that philosophy is an elite discipline that never escapes the walls of academia. But for others, philosophy can be something far more ordinary and accessible to the average person – something that quietly shapes the way we think, the choices we make, and ultimately how we live our lives. We speak to the co-founders of an organisation that believes in just that, Dr Tee Chen Giap and Chew Zhun Yee of the Malaysian Philosophy Society.
