About this episode
When most people think about Singapore, Muslims aren't top of the list. But for Dr. Baptiste Brodard, a sociologist and researcher in Islamic Studies from Switzerland, Singapore's Muslim community is one of the most successful in the world. We speak with both Dr. Baptiste and Dr. Syed Harun Taha Alhabsyi, President of LBKM, about the role of leadership in the evolving Muslim community.
