Commentary: Reintegrating ex-offenders a noble cause, but into what kind of a society

Dr Justin Lee and Ms Fern Yu of the Institute of Policy Studies at the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy opined that the reintegration of ex-offenders should start with a reflection on the kind of society we have come to accept as normal. Instead of wondering how we might get more people to accept ex-offenders, perhaps we should be asking if we are an inclusive community that they would want to be a part of.
