In parts of East Nusa Tenggara, getting clean water once meant hours of daily travel — a burden often carried by women and children.

When Shana Fatina first visited Papagarang Village fresh out of college, she witnessed that struggle up close. Instead of walking away, she founded Komodo Water, introducing sustainable, solar-powered water systems that deliver clean water straight into people’s homes.

Since then, the initiative has transformed life across several islands, improving sanitation, creating new livelihoods and strengthening community resilience.

Right Business: Who gets to drink safely? Komodo Water fights for clean water in Indonesia

After years of seemingly unstoppable growth, Singapore’s housing market is showing its first signs of change.

HDB resale prices have dipped 0.1% in the first quarter of 2026, the first quarterly decline in almost seven years. Meanwhile, resale transactions have also eased slightly, down 4.5% from last year.

What does this mean for homeowners and buyers? Could this be the start of a more balanced, affordable market or just a brief pause before prices climb again?

On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Nicholas Mak, Chief Research Officer, MOGUL.sg, to find out more.

On Wealth Tracker, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Lim Jun Kit, Senior Strategist, Phillip Nova,  for more insights.

On What’s Trending, Hongbin Jeong and Nadiah Koh dive into the most viral stories circulating online. 

First, a five-year-old opens her green packet on Hari Raya… only to find no money inside the envelope, just a note that says ‘Better Luck Next Time’. Is this a heartless prank, life lesson, or just plain awkward?

From wilting ferns to a Monstera that ‘talks back’, they explore this trend and the upcoming AI plant translator that promises to turn your plants into your personal life coaches.
