Biography

Jamus is the deputy head of policy research and president of the Youth Wing, where he helps shape the Party's policy agenda, while also working to inspire the next generation of youngsters in political affairs. He was elected as a Member of Parliament for Sengkang GRC since July 2020, and is also a member of the Estimates Committee of the 14th Parliament of Singapore.

In addition to his political hat, Jamus is an associate professor of economics at ESSEC Business School, one of the top European business schools with a campus in Singapore, and before that, he worked in both the private and quasi-private sector (at a large sovereign wealth fund and both investment and commercial banks), as well as at a local think tank. He was schooled at Catholic High, Raffles Institution, and Raffles Junior College, before going on to earn way too many degrees at the University of Southern Queensland, the London School of Economics, the University of California, and Harvard.

Jamus is the father of a loving daughter and beautiful wife, who occupy much of the little free time he is able to squeeze out between his professional and political commitments. In addition to helping him deeply empathise with the challenges faced by young, sandwich-generation families in Sengkang, his aspirations of a brighter Singapore for his daughter is a major motivation for his service to the country.

In his wild and impetuous youth, Jamus was, variously, a drummer, rugby player, and Solitaire junkie; today, his more mundane pursuits have led him to the trails, library, and kitchen, typically in reverse order.
