Singapore is replacing the Physical Employment Standard also known as PES with a new medical classification framework for National Service. The goal: more precise assessments and more roles for servicemen. Around 1,200 more servicemen each year could be deployed to vocations they were previously ineligible for. But even in the current system, many pre-enlistees who appeal their PES grading are actually seeking to be assessed as more fit, not less.

On Viewpoint, Lynlee Foo speaks to Samuel Devaraj, Correspondent from The Straits Times to find out whether removing the PES labels changes how people value and pursue certain roles.

While global headlines focus on geopolitical tensions between the US and the Middle East, a quieter shift is unfolding in Singapore’s private markets.

High-net-worth capital—particularly from investors with Middle Eastern exposure—is rotating away from traditional growth assets into Singapore commercial real estate. Much of this activity is not visible in public transaction data, instead moving through private co-investment structures and family office mandates.

On Industry Insight, Lynlee Foo speaks to Maureen Li, Founder and CEO of ABIEL Property Investment Fund to find out how the rapid rise of family offices is reshaping capital flows in the city-state.
