🌍On MoneyFM 89.3’s International News Review, Steve Okun  joins Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen and begin with Singapore’s hazardous haze, now thick enough to threaten Formula One weekend plans and spark fresh debate about climate catastrophe, regional accountability, and whether Southeast Asia is prepared for a future of permanent smoke seasons.

Then to Riyadh, where three Saudis were killed at the airport in a Houthi attack just as Pakistan sends troops to support Saudi security. Steve explains how this escalates the Yemen conflict, reshapes Gulf alliances, and raises questions about regional stability.

Next: a political firestorm in the U.S., after Secretary of Defence Pete Hegseth pushed to live stream the execution of Nidal Hasan by firing squad on live TV. Debates about extremism, media responsibility, and the boundaries of public discourse are in focus.

And finally, Singapore’s own cultural whiplash: Five Guys closes its ION Orchard outlet, while Luckin Coffee continues its explosive expansion with 100 stores. What does this say about consumer trends and soft power?
