If I were Still King of Singapore

“There are things that I want to write about and change.”

This is the second volume of Adrian Tan’s essays on issues he cared about concerning Singapore and the world at large: our neighbour across the Causeway, office dynamics, education and parenting, race relations, animal rights, National Service and more.

His commentaries – sharp and practical – are presented with wisdom gained from years of legal practice and made accessible by his characteristic wit.

The writing is always purposeful. As he once said: “There are things that I want to write about and change.” Yet, each essay is laced with his good humour.

If I were Still King of Singapore is to If I were King of Singapore much like The Teenage Workbook is to The Teenage Textbook. They should be read together.
