A new era begins in Syria. Bashar al-Assad, the Syrian president who inherited power in 2000 with promises of reform, only to brutally suppress his opponents in a war that claimed hundreds of thousands of lives, has been toppled in a lightning rebel advance.

But the future of Syria remains uncertain. How will the fall of Assad change the fate of the country? Who will be able to unite Syrians?

Hongbin Jeong speaks with Cedomir Nestorovic, Professor of Geopolitics, ESSEC Business School, Asia-Pacific to find out more.

TikTok dances, K-pop, makeovers and glittery outfits might not be what comes to mind when you think of senior activities. But at a recent event in Kallang, 19 seniors aged 60 and above got a crash course in becoming TikTok stars, with help from young volunteers from LASALLE and NAFA.

They learnt how to film, edit and upload their own videos and some were already keen to do it all over again.

So, why do activities for seniors so often come with a 'senior' label? Could giving older people more freedom to explore unfamiliar interests change how we think about ageing and what can younger people learn from them in return?

On The Agenda, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Hasyna Neo, Founder of The WoW Movement, and June Lim, a Lasalle College of the Arts student, to find out more.

'Okay, I’ll see you at 7 lol'. Why do we keep adding those three little letters to the end of our texts, even when we’re not actually laughing?

For millennials, 'LOL' has become less about laughing out loud and more about softening a message or signaling that we’re joking. But Gen Z has a problem with it and some are calling millennials out for ending practically every message with 'lol'.

On What's Trending, Hongbin Jeong, Nadiah Koh and Alexandra Parada find out if 'LOL' is officially a millennial texting habit. And if Gen Z wants us to stop using it, what are we supposed to say instead?
