Committee of Supply 2026 debate, Day 3: Diana Pang on interfaith learning for social cohesion
Singapore’s model of harmony was built over decades of deliberate policy and hard work, and must be renewed every generation, said MP Diana Pang. In parliament on Monday (Mar 2), she called for a deepening of interfaith education. She suggested developing a structural baseline of interfaith literacy with age-appropriate content and experiential learning, as well as clear frameworks, training and resources for teachers to guide sensitive discussions.
