SINGAPORE - When Canadian Cliff Tam and his Singaporean wife moved back to Singapore in 2019 so she could finish serving a bond related to her medical degree, he decided to be a stay-at-home dad while she taught and did research at the National University of Singapore (NUS).
They have two daughters, Sarah-Faith, five, and Esther-Praise, three.
