On Joining Politics, Rising Hawker Prices, US Tariffs and more...(ft. Grace Fu)|

Why would someone leave a cushy corporate job… to become a lightning rod in Singapore politics? In this episode, we sit down with Minister Grace Fu, one of Singapore’s longest-serving female ministers, for a no-holds-barred conversation on politics, policy and the public backlash that comes with both. From her family’s deep political roots (her dad worked directly under LKY!) to her early policy battles against smoking, we dig into the defining moments of her career and the hot-button issues making headlines today. Is the carbon tax just a slap on the wrist for the rich? Why isn’t the government stepping in on overpriced food courts? And what really happened with her viral food price comment? We also talk GE2025 boundary changes and the biggest challenge PAP faces in this election. 🧠 Hard truths. 🧂 Spicy clapbacks. 🎙 Only on The Daily Ketchup. 🔔 Hit subscribe for more conversations #GraceFu #SingaporePolitics #YuhuaSMC #CarbonTax #FoodPricesSG #GE2025 #PAP #DailyKetchupPodcast #ClimatePolicy #TrumpSingapore #SGElections2025 #PolicyTalks #PoliticalBacklash - The Daily Ketchup Podcast is powered by Rezt n Relax, Grey & Sanders and TakeASeat.sg.
