🌍On MoneyFM 89.3’s International News Review, Steve Okun  joins Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen to begin with the extraordinary account of Flydubai captain Smit Machchhar, who fought through stab wounds to unlock the cockpit door and help save 174 passengers during an attempted mid‑air sabotage. His words “I couldn’t let everybody else die” have become a global rallying cry for courage under pressure.

Then to Washington, where the U.S. State Department’s Hall of Flags has undergone a dramatic makeover. The removal of dozens of foreign flags in favour of a red‑white‑and‑blue display has sparked debate about diplomacy, identity, and what America chooses to signal to the world.

And in Singapore, GovTech has launched a pilot that nobody saw coming: a dating‑match system for young, single public officers raising questions about innovation, workplace culture, and whether government‑built romance is the next frontier in civil‑service well‑being.
