Podcast with Yah Lah But
This is a special two-parter in collaboration with Yah Lah But, featuring the people behind Singapore’s built environment.
In this episode, we dig deep into Singapore’s underground infrastructure with Er. Geoshua Tan, Vice President (Civil & Infrastructure Engineering) at CPG Consultants. From his work on projects like the Deep Tunnel Sewerage System (DTSS) and the Bidadari land bridge, Geoshua shares what it takes to design infrastructure that’s built to last — and how climate change is reshaping the way engineers think and build. He also clears up some of the most common myths about the profession and reflects on what keeps him proud to be part of shaping Singapore’s future.
In this episode, we sit down with Ar. Tan Szue Hann — architect, sustainability expert, and firm believer that good design goes far beyond how a building looks. Szue Hann shares what led him to architecture, how it blends art and science, and the collaborative spirit among engineers and consultants to making sure designs meet real-world needs. He also spotlights the “eureka” moments that keep him inspired, and why, even in an age of automation, the human touch still matters in shaping spaces that people live, work and play in.
