Meet the four misfits living in one HDB flat. One is a Malay–Jew who is trying to get his father to come back as a ghost. Cantona is a promising Bangladeshi artist on the run from a construction company. Tights is a Chinese illegal immigrant with a Forrest Gump obsession. And Shanti is a gifted Indian lab technician hiding from her abusive husband. When a forlorn pontianak begins haunting them, the four friends find themselves embroiled in a surreal showdown that may just upend the world, or at least Singapore. Written in Suffian Hakim's trademark humour, The Minorities is a novel about those living on the edges of society and their soulful bond.

Sarah Langston is a Caucasian girl in love with her African American boyfriend, Richard Morris. Everything is cool until she finds out she is pregnant. Sarah has a broken family, and revealing this secret to her ever-supportive dad is the most difficult thing she has ever had to do. She finds comfort in one of her best friends, Emily Wilkerson, her African American best friend. With the help of Emilys parents, Sarah tells the truth to her dad, even if haunted by fear. Surprisingly, her mom, who has never been there for her, overhears the conversation. What will happen to their already tarnished relationship? How will her mother react to this news? Abuse, the police, and the neighborhood play a part as everything comes crashing down on them. The Minorities exemplifies the unconditional love parents have for their children, no matter what the circumstances. The support of family and friends is the most important thing one needs in times of despair. Teenage pregnancy is one of the unrelenting issues our society faces. If not prevented among the youth, it can be an avenue for violence and neglect of responsibility. In The Minorities, one vivid example of aggression against women is being told.

It's hard to be in the minority. If you're the only person from your ethnic or cultural background in your organization or team, you probably know what it's like to be misunderstood or marginalized. You might find yourself inadvertently overlooked or actively silenced. Even when a work environment is not blatantly racist or hostile, people of color often struggle to thrive—and may end up leaving the organization. Being a minority is not just about numbers. It's about understanding pain, power, and the impact of the past. Organizational consultant Adrian Pei describes key challenges ethnic minorities face in majority-culture organizations. He unpacks how historical forces shape contemporary realities, and what both minority and majority cultures need to know in order to work together fruitfully. If you're a cultural minority working in a majority culture organization, or if you're a majority culture supervisor of people from other backgrounds, learn the dynamics at work. And be encouraged that you can help make things better so that all can flourish.
