🌍On MoneyFM 89.3’s International News Review, Steve Okun  joins Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen discuss the political earthquake now shaking Washington. 

The historic 2026 US midterm elections delivered a powerful Democratic wave, flipping Congress and dramatically weakening President Donald Trump's governing power.

Steve argues this was more than a routine midterm correction. It was a voter backlash against affordability concerns, tariffs, immigration policies and a growing sense of economic unease. The scale of the Democratic victories surprised even seasoned observers, with gains extending deep into traditionally Republican territory, including Texas and Georgia.

The conversation explores how candidate quality, shifting Hispanic voter sentiment and voter resistance to gerrymandering helped fuel the political realignment. They also examine the role of billionaire influence in politics, including Elon Musk's massive campaign spending, which failed to prevent key Republican losses.

Beyond Washington, the implications could be global. With Democrats set to control Congress while Trump remains in the White House, attention turns to bipartisan "horseshoe issues" including China, AI regulation, data centres, technology investment and economic competitiveness. For Asia and Southeast Asia, the changes could influence everything from trade policy to the future of AI infrastructure and US-China relations.

The message from voters was unmistakable: performance matters more than ideology, and the political landscape entering 2028 has been fundamentally transformed.

Saturday Mornings International News Review: Democratic Wave Reshapes America as Trump is Checked, Texas Flipped and Asia Watches

🌍On MoneyFM 89.3’s Leaders in Action Conversation Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen  welcomes Chris "Jordy" Jordan, Regional Vice President and Country Manager for Singapore and ASEAN at monday.com, to look at one of the biggest challenges facing the digital economy: the growing gap between AI leaders and AI laggards.

For many, AI remains more buzzword than business transformation.

While large enterprises are racing ahead, many smaller businesses remain stuck on the side lines: only a small percentage of organisations have successfully integrated AI into their core operations. 

We discuss what's really stopping companies from adopting AI, how SMEs can compete without enterprise-sized budgets, and why workforce readiness may be a bigger challenge than the technology itself.

Most importantly, we'll ask what "democratising AI" actually means. If artificial intelligence becomes a productivity superpower, how do we ensure everyone benefits, not just the biggest players? The future of work may depend on the answer.

Saturday  Mornings: The AI Divide - Who's Winning and Who's Getting Left Behind?

🌍On MoneyFM 89.3’s The Wide Angle Conversation Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen  welcomes the Mexican Ambassador to Singapore Agustín García-López Loaeza,Mexican artist R3DO (Alan Rodríguez), and Lynn Zeng from Bankaool Mexico to explore one of Mexico's most meaningful cultural traditions: Día de Muertos, or Day of the Dead.

At the Singapore Art Museum, three contemporary Mexican artists are bringing this centuries-old tradition to life through powerful murals, immersive installations, and traditional altars that honor loved ones who have passed on. The exhibition, Where We Are Remembered, We Return, blends contemporary art with cultural heritage in a way that feels both deeply personal and universally human.

We'll discuss why the Day of the Dead is often misunderstood outside Mexico, how art bridges cultures across continents, and why memory remains one of humanity's most powerful connections.

It's a conversation about family, identity, culture, and the enduring power of stories to keep people alive long after they're gone.
