Wendy Low and Terence Soon are the newly appointed Heads of the Progress Singapore Party’s new Women’s and Youth Wings, respectively. In Part 2 of this interview, they discuss how they can make a difference in an environment which is incredibly unfair and restrictive towards opposition politicians. Terence talks about the Youth Wing and its relationship to the party as a whole. Both then discuss the challenges to creating a more diverse PSP, especially with regard to women and youth.
