In this issue, we continue the conversation on transformation and leadership with Deputy Secretary (International and Training), Ministry of Home Affairs, T. Raja Kumar who illustrates key points in his essay on building a culture of learning in the Home Team.

The Journal also spoke with Commissioner of Police Hoong Wee Teck, in the Leadership Interview. In this first interview he has given since becoming CP in 2015, he talks about the lessons from the cases he investigated over more than three decades of fighting crime, the ethos of public service that drive him, and the professional excellence that he demands of his officers.

Some of the articles in this issue were inspired by recent news headlines. These include deepfakes, cyber vigilantes, radicalized youths, returning foreign fighters, criminal scams, mass protests and gender. The articles were written by the Home Team's behavioural scientists, psychologists and research analysts, and experts from among our global partners.
