Here’s a thought. What if playing it safe is the most dangerous thing you could be doing right now?
Kelvin Goh doesn’t pull any punches in this episode. He dives into why the typical fear-based investment strategies are falling flat, how to spot real resilience in a sea of uncertainty, and why blindly trusting AI or hoping for a China recovery might be wishful thinking at best.
He also talks about what his clients are actually worried about behind closed doors, and it’s not just market crashes. It's the fear of missing the next wave while staying too “safe.”

This episode takes a hard look at how universities are falling behind, why graduates are underpaid and underused, and what needs to change to fix it. It's not just about employability, it’s about whether our education system is preparing anyone for the world we’re actually living in.

(Apologies for the audio quality in this episode - technical issues got in the way, but we couldn’t let this conversation go unheard. Thanks for sticking with DoMore!)
Anwar Ibrahim is in power, but does he really have the people's support? Malaysia’s political landscape is shifting, and the Malay community’s stance on Anwar, the rise of PAS, and the power of Sabah and Sarawak are shaping what happens next. In this episode, we break down why the Malays haven’t rallied behind Anwar, how economic struggles fuel political discontent, and why social media is rewriting the rules of the game.
But here’s the real question: Can Anwar deliver? With UMNO losing ground, Sabah and Sarawak demanding more control, and economic recovery tied to political survival, his leadership is on the clock. Will reforms and stability win him long-term support, or is Malaysia heading toward another political shake-up? Tune in to get the full picture.
