🌍On MoneyFM 89.3’s International News Review, Steve Okun joins Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen discuss a week where climate, geopolitics, tech nostalgia, and public‑space design collided in ways only Singapore can appreciate.
We begin with the return of transboundary haze, as PSI levels creep into the unhealthy range. Fires in Sumatra and Kalimantan intensified by dry weather and land‑clearing are pushing smoke across the region. Steve breaks down the climate‑risk trends, the political friction behind haze diplomacy, and what Singaporeans should expect next.
Then to Jakarta, where President Prabowo has offered Indonesia as Russia’s gateway to ASEAN, signalling a bold geopolitical pivot with major implications for regional trade, defence, and U.S.–China competition.
Next: the unexpected tech story dominating U.S. feeds... MapQuest is suddenly the No. 1 app after refusing to map Lake Ontario, sparking a viral debate about digital trust, platform quirks, and the strange power of nostalgia.
And finally, Singapore’s own viral moment: the Farrer Park urinal controversy, after WTO President Jack Sim’s post reignited conversations about hygiene, dignity, and public‑space design. The conversation is more than stream of consciousness.
