Proximity to nature is no longer just a lifestyle choice - it’s becoming a serious driver of property value in Singapore. This “green premium” is reshaping buyer preferences and influencing how developers plan new projects. On Industry Insight, Lynlee Foo chats with Dora Chng, Residential Director at GuocoLand, to discuss the thinking behind Springleaf Residence, where more than 70% of the site is landscaped and set beside the Central Catchment Nature Reserve. They explore buyer behaviour, affordability, and whether green living will remain a premium feature - or become the new norm in Singapore real estate.

Industry Insight: What’s fueling the green premium in Singapore’s housing market?

Singapore is one of the wealthiest cities in the world. But a landmark new report from The Food Bank Singapore and the Institute of Policy Studies reveals a food support sector that is resourceful, quietly stretched and more fragmented than most people realise.

On Viewpoint, Dr Seah Lay Hoon, Senior Research Fellow, NUS, and lead researcher behind Hunger Report III, joins Lyn Lee to unpack what the sector actually looks like from the inside. Why is storage, not funding — the single biggest operational bottleneck? Who is really using food support, and are resources reaching those who need them most? And what would it take to build a more coordinated, resilient system?

Would you fall for a Zoom call with Prime Minister Lawrence Wong, President Tharman, MAS officials and even global executives?

That’s exactly what scammers used in a sophisticated AI deepfake scam that allegedly convinced one victim to transfer S$4.9 million.

Using fake WhatsApp messages, AI-generated Zoom meetings and fabricated government briefings about the Strait of Hormuz, scammers created an incredibly convincing illusion involving senior Singapore officials and international figures.

On AI & Me, Lynlee Foo puts AI to the test and breaks down the tell-tale signs people can look out for to spot deepfakes from unnatural lip-syncing and audio mismatches to suspicious meeting setups designed to appear legitimate.

Trump. Xi. Beijing. The first US presidential visit to China in nearly a decade, and the world was watching.

Kishore Mahbubani, Distinguished Fellow at the Asia Research Institute, National University of Singapore, former Singapore Ambassador to the United Nations and one of Asia's most influential foreign policy thinkers, joins Lynlee Foo to make sense of what actually happened. What did Xi mean by invoking the Thucydides Trap? Why is Taiwan the one issue that could trigger war between the US and China? And why does the Iran war give Beijing more leverage than Washington wants to admit?

Also this week: Russia launched the largest drone and missile assault of the Ukraine war shortly after a Trump-brokered ceasefire ended. And a new Russian law that small states across the world should be watching very closely.
