My Kind of Town explores the different perspectives on the career of Mr Chiam See Tong through a series of interviews with the former Member of Parliament, close aides, academics, politicians, and the residents of Potong Pasir whom he served for 27 years. The multimedia feature is divided into three broad sections. The first part looks at the various communities within Potong Pasir and the bond that Chiam forged with his former constituents. The second is a feature story on Chiam today, and how the political veteran is adjusting to a life after Parliament. The third part traces the milestones of Chiam’s career, and assesses his performance as Singapore’s longest-serving opposition MP.
