Your Health: Fighting infertility with a fork and spoon

“If there’s a time to invest in AI and advanced manufacturing, it’s now.”

That was the message from Lennon Tan, President of the Singapore Manufacturing Federation, as Singapore’s Budget 2026 placed AI firmly in focus with plans for a National AI Council and a dedicated mission for advanced manufacturing.

On Industry Insight, The Afternoon Update's Lynlee Foo speaks with Lennon about the realities manufacturers are navigating today — mixed demand, cost pressures, and the growing role of AI inside factory operations. They unpack why upgrading is happening in stages, how firms are moving at different speeds, and what that means for Singapore’s competitive edge.

In this Budget-special edition of Industry Insight, Lynlee Foo speaks with Kelvin Koh, Co-Chair, Singapore Enterprise Chapter of SGTech on rising SME interest, common scaling barriers, the role of change management and partnerships, and what would signal a national tipping point for AI adoption.

Budget 2026: Singapore's AI push — Are SMEs ready to move beyond pilots?

Lunar New Year is traditionally one of the first major stress points for global supply chains with factory shutdowns across Asia, front-loaded exports, and potential shifts in freight rates.

But in 2026, the signals are more nuanced. Is global supply chain demand stabilising — or beginning to soften? 

On Industry Insight, The Afternoon Update’s Lynlee Foo speaks with Andrew Coldrey, Vice President for Asia Pacific at C.H. Robinson, about what early 2026 freight patterns are revealing about global trade. They discuss softer retail demand and evolving inventory strategies, air freight dynamics including semiconductor and technology cargo, ocean capacity and carrier pricing decisions, manufacturing diversification across Southeast Asia, as well as the impact of tariffs and geopolitical uncertainty on global trade flows.

Listen for a measured look at how resilient global supply chains really are, and the indicators to watch in the months ahead.
