Education Minister Chan Chun Sing is a familiar face in the public sphere, but behind the political figure lies a devoted father of three. In a recent interview with 8world, the 54-year-old offered a glimpse into his family life, sharing the joys and challenges of raising his children, one of whom has cerebral palsy. Speaking about his 13-year-old son, Chan admitted to longing for more time with all his children. «Whether or not a kid has special needs, they will always have their individual requirements.

He recalled how people would comment on her academic performance: «When my daughter used to do well in school, others would often laugh and say, 'You're the minister's daughter, of course you should do well.'» He recognised that she would face criticism regardless of her results, with some who may say she didn't meet expectations as a minister's daughter if she didn't excel.
