But, as it becomes increasingly challenging to imagine how Washington and Beijing’s relationship is set to turn as Donald Trump prepares for his second term in office, how is the future world order looking when it comes to geoeconomics? And how will smaller countries like Singapore fare?

On this episode of Morning Shot, Dr Tan Khee Giap, Chairman, Singapore National Committee for Pacific Economic Cooperation shares his insights.

A night-time cycling trend that started with four Chinese students riding 50km for soup dumplings blew out to a reported 100,000 to 200,000 people recently, jamming major roads, overwhelming a small tourist city and drawing the attention of authorities.

Following that, Chinese officials imposed restrictions on bike hire after the huge gathering blocked a highway between Zhengzhou and Kaifeng.

On this episode of Morning Shot, Dr Lim Tai Wei, East Asian expert & Professor at Soka University shares his insights on the reasons behind concerns over this phenomenon. He also weighs in with a broader outlook on persistent youth unemployment in China and how Chinese youths should adjust their mindsets when it comes to job market expectations.

With the upcoming changes to retirement and re-employment ages, senior professionals possess a wealth of experience that can greatly benefit companies.

However, sometimes they may face the risk of being sidelined during workforce reductions.

What practical approaches can help organisations support these valuable employees and ensure they remain engaged while contributing meaningfully to the workforce? We will be speaking with an experienced senior, who believes in continuing to work beyond the traditional retirement age.

He is Stephen Lin, Asian Regional Managing Partner of the Haines Centre for Strategic - who once led over 700 technicians in Singapore’s Navy before going on to guide global organisations in strategic management, exemplifying a deep commitment to leadership and transformation across sectors.
