In the Spotlight: The world bids its final farewell to the Queen

The 2004 Sumatra earthquake and tsunami may feel like a distant memory, but new research suggests its impact is still unfolding right here in Singapore.

On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Dr Grace Ng, Research Fellow at NTU's Earth Observatory of Singapore, about a new study showing that the earthquake caused Singapore's land to slowly sink for years afterwards.

What does this mean for a country that's already preparing for rising sea levels? Should Singaporeans be worried, or is this simply another factor scientists and policymakers need to account for? And could distant earthquakes reshape how Singapore plans for climate change and coastal resilience in the decades ahead?

The Big Story: Is Singapore slowly sinking? The hidden impact of the 2004 quake

Death has long been one of society's biggest taboos, something many of us avoid discussing until we have no choice.But that mindset is beginning to shift.

More young Singaporeans are opening up conversations about grief, end-of-life planning, and what it means to prepare for life's final chapter.

Some are writing books about death, others are creating spaces to talk about loss, while one former tech sales executive even took a 90% pay cut to help families navigate their final goodbyes.

On The Agenda, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Kenneth Yeow, the ‘AfterlifeBro’, about what's driving this cultural shift, why younger generations are embracing conversations about death, and whether planning for the inevitable could ultimately help us live more meaningful lives.

On What's Trending, Hongbin Jeong and Nadiah Koh unpack a viral incident that left Singaporeans doing a double take after an HDB fitness corner was transformed into an open-air laundry rack, complete with shirts, towels and even underwear hanging from exercise equipment.

Are neighbourhood fitness corners still serving their purpose? From makeshift playgrounds and social hangouts to now clothes-drying stations, the duo explores whether these public spaces are being used as intended, if they're still worth investing in, and what residents would rather see in their estates instead.
