It isn’t easy making a mid-career switch, and the Workers’ Party’s Fadli Fawzi knows firsthand about it.
The 39-year-old lawyer, who was introduced as one of WP’s potential candidates on Saturday (June 27), shared the struggles he faced while changing career tracks from social service to law.
“It was a financially difficult decision, I had to rely on my savings and loans. I also worked part-time as a tutor.”
Fadli decided to pursue law as he wanted a more hands-on way to help others after five years as a policy development officer at the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore (MUIS).
“My experience showed me that we can do more for working professionals who are looking to transition into new jobs,” he said.
He wants to look into expanding and consolidating loan and grant schemes as well as making them accessible to all mid-career professionals.
Now, the lawyer is making another career switch to help Singaporeans — by going into politics.
