Bigger Picture: Fed raises rates by 75 bps, warns of further tightening

Singapore’s workforce is entering 2026 with a striking disconnect: while most workers believe happiness at work is possible, only 56% say they actually feel happy, placing Singapore among the lowest in the region.

Esther Lee, Managing Director, Singapore, Jobstreet by SEEK unpacks new findings that point to burnout, limited career progression and uneven access to purpose and recognition as key pressure points, even as pay is increasingly viewed as a baseline rather than a differentiator.

Breakfast Bites: Curling 101 - fun facts you may not know about this winter sport!

Singapore’s retail sector is facing intensifying pressure. While nearly 90% of registered retail entities are locally owned, the rapid expansion of Chinese brands across F&B, fashion, beauty and lifestyle has sharpened competition in malls and prime retail spaces. But beyond brand visibility, the real strain lies in a cost environment and competitive model that increasingly rewards scale, speed and capital strength.

Dr Lawrence Loh, Director of the Centre for Governance and Sustainability at NUS Business School, joins the Breakfast Show to examine whether this moment marks a passing competitive wave or a longer-term reset of Singapore’s retail landscape, and what it will take for local SMEs to stay resilient in a market that is evolving faster than ever.
