Hello there ,

Last week, I went for my first cycle as a member of the national military reserve. For those not familiar with this, all Singaporean males are required to undergo 10 cycles of military training after their initial two-year stint as a full-time soldier has been completed. It was a strange feeling experiencing the sights and sounds that were an integral part of my life for a time: the ever-so-slight smell of preservatives in the food, the stale and musky air of the bunks, and the dreaded early mornings.

While most of the week was spent on military procedures, what I really appreciated was talking to some of the other servicemen and taking in as many life lessons as I could. Some of what I learned pertained to family, while others were about careers. In any case, it was nice to realize that learning never really stops.

Speaking of education, India’s edtech scene is seeing some big moves, as the country’s top players have come together to form a new regulatory body. What will come of it? That’s for you to find out in our premium story for today.
