Video Description
Visionary Founding Exec Chairman of Banyan Tree... Charismatic Founding Chairman of Singapore Management University (SMU)... Former Political Detainee. Kwon Ping, or KP (as he’s affectionately known), unpacks what meritocracy is. He talks about how it helped get us here but could complicate things, going forward. He cautions about the "insidiousness of meritocracy." For the first time, KP speaks at some length about his tryst with activism and his detention under the Internal Security Act in 1977. He talks about conviction and compromise. Ho Kwon Ping speaks his mind from the heart in a frank, no-holds-barred conversation with IQ Chief Editor and former Nominated MP Viswa Sadasivan.
