Right Business: This company is helping SMEs thrive in Southeast Asia

We’ve all been there: trying to squeeze into the MRT during morning peak-hour. But, would you wake up earlier to avoid the crowd and save money on public transport?

If you’re willing to shift your travel schedules to avoid the morning rush hour, you might be looking at receiving up to 80% in fare discounts.

This is part of efforts to better manage peak-hour crowding on buses and trains, especially in north-east Singapore. It is also part of a planned refresh of the Travel Smart Journeys scheme, which will cover more bus services than it did before.

So, can this newly refreshed incentive scheme reduce the morning peak-hour MRT congestion in Singapore? And more importantly, will it help to really change public transport users’ behaviours? 

On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Dr Ong Ghim Ping Raymond, Associate Professor and Deputy Head (Research) in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the National University of Singapore to find out.

The Big Story: Can bigger fare discounts reduce morning peak-hour MRT congestion?

Singapore shares opened muted today following weak trade figures from China and ahead of key inflation data in the US.

In early trade, the Straits Times Index (STI) inched up 0.16 point to 3,813.71 points after 46.8 million securities changed hands in the broader market.

In terms of companies to watch for today, we have Aims Apac Reit, because the industrial and logistics real estate investment trust (Reit) is divesting its warehouse at 3 Toh Tuck Link for S$24.4 million. 

Elsewhere, from more on how China is gearing up for a possible trade war with the US next year, to what a major breakthrough in quantum computing by Google means for the global tech industry – more international and corporate headlines remain in focus. 

Also on deck – one last look at US inflation before official numbers for November come in later in the day.

On Market View, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian unpacked the developments with Carl Ashton, Investment Counselor, Citi Private Bank.

But how exactly do stablecoins make money in this dynamic ecosystem? And how can you maximize your returns by investing in stablecoins?

On The Wealth Tracker, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Jason French, Executive Director, Clients, Sygnum to find out more.
