Iswaran Singapore
Former transport minister S. Iswaran has been granted permission to leave Singapore to settle his son into university in Australia, three weeks after he was handed 27 charges, which he pleaded not guilty to.
Iswaran, who is currently out on $800,000 bail, has been allowed to temporarily leave Singapore to assist his son in the transition to university life in Australia. This decision comes amidst the ongoing legal proceedings against him. Despite the charges, Iswaran maintains his innocence and has pleaded not guilty.
This development highlights the importance of family and education in the life of a public figure like Iswaran. It also sheds light on the challenges faced by individuals in balancing personal responsibilities with their professional commitments. As the former transport minister, Iswaran's role in shaping Singapore's transportation landscape has been significant, and his absence during this period may have implications for the ongoing projects and policies in the sector.
