In the Spotlight: Will you allow employees to take on side hustles?

Singapore is taking a significant step in its long-term energy planning. Prime Minister Lawrence Wong has announced that Singapore will undergo an assessment by the International Atomic Energy Agency in 2027.

Now, this is not a decision to build a nuclear plant. Instead, it’s about determining whether Singapore has the expertise, institutions, regulations and safety systems needed to even make an informed decision on nuclear energy in the future.

The assessment comes as countries around the world, and increasingly within ASEAN, revisit nuclear power as a low-carbon, reliable energy source amid rising electricity demand and climate pressures.

On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Dr Alvin Chew, Senior Fellow, S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies (RSIS), to find out more.

Singapore’s National Day Parade is heading back to the National Stadium in 2026, and while the bigger venue means nearly double the crowd capacity, it also means some iconic crowd favourites like the Red Lions, mobile column and aerial displays won’t be making an appearance.

On What’s Trending, Hongbin Jeong unpacks the biggest changes coming to NDP 2026, from indoor drone shows and immersive performances to the launch of a three-song NDP album and a new micro-drama series. Plus, we ask listeners: what’s YOUR favourite part of NDP every year?

We often think of home as the place where our parents are most protected. But when you really think about it, the very spaces we’ve always known can slowly become more challenging as they grow older.

And here in Singapore, as more families choose to have their ageing parents continue living at home, this is no longer something to worry about someday, it’s a very real concern right now.

More renovation conversations are moving beyond style and design, toward a bigger question: how can a home continue to support the people living in it through every stage of life?

On The Agenda, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Kean Woei, Co-Founder of Homescape, to find out what it truly means to create a home that’s not only beautiful, but also safe for ageing parents.
