Episode Synopsis

Kampung spirit, mutual aid, whatever you call it — the concept of communally organised cooperation in times of need is no stranger to Singaporeans. Channel NewsTheatre speaks to a panel of festival artists and community organisers about what it means to actively look out for one another in our everyday lives, and whether it is a sustainable response to the systemic inequalities that created such need in the first place.
Moderated by Ke Weiliang, and featuring Adeeb Fazah (The Essential Playlist by The Second Breakfast Company), Zee Wong (0.01 by Goh Shou Yi, Rei Poh and Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts), and Hannah Lim (Migrant Mutual Aid).
This radio chat took place on 22 January 2022 as part of M1 Singapore Fringe Festival 2022: The Helpers, presented by The Necessary Stage.
