Oil prices have surged back above US$100 a barrel as attacks disrupt key energy and shipping routes across the Middle East.

A drone strike has shut down part of Saudi Arabia’s East-West pipeline, threatening a route that can move Saudi crude without passing through the Strait of Hormuz. Meanwhile, vessels have come under attack in the Strait of Hormuz, with tensions also rising around the Bab el-Mandeb, two critical chokepoints for global energy shipments.

So how serious is the threat to global oil supplies? And if higher oil and shipping costs persist, how could this ripple through to Singapore?

On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Mukesh Sahdev, Founder and CEO of XAnalysts, to find out more.

The Big Story: Oil is back above US$100. What does it mean for Singaporeans?

Singapore is ageing fast, with seniors aged 65 and above now making up more than one in five residents. But while much of the conversation around an ageing population focuses on who will care for our seniors, what if we also asked what our seniors can contribute?

Seniors at Lucky Haven are teaching carrom, running AI workshops and connecting with younger generations, showing that growing older doesn't mean stepping away from society.

Could Singapore start seeing seniors not just as recipients of care, but as people with skills, experience and plenty to give back?

Hongbin Jeong speaks with Dr Tan Cheng Kok, a senior volunteer and AI trainer at Lucky Haven, and Dixon Lim, Executive Director of Antica Community Development and Services, to find out more.

What if gossip wasn’t just something you whispered to your friends, but an actual business?

On What’s Trending, Hongbin Jeong and Nadiah Koh dive into the strange world of paid gossip, after a 67-year-old woman in Colombia says she makes money by collecting and selling neighbourhood secrets.

She even says her gossip business has helped her buy two houses. And if you’re worried about your own secrets getting out? Apparently, she’ll take money to keep those quiet too.

So, is gossip an untapped business opportunity? Would you pay to find out someone else’s secret or pay even more to make sure your own stays buried?
