Long-time Singapore residents may recognise David from his days as a sportscaster on local TV and on ESPN. He left the small screen to earn a business degree and then became a media consultant, teaching a course on media at a local polytechnic. David says he loves the passion his fellow students bring to the classroom and their diversity. “I like the fact that no nationality forms more than 20 percent of my MPA cohort,” he says. “Unlike many other policy schools, no one ideology or culture dominates in the classroom.”
