Saturday Mornings - International News Review: Trump faces Epstein files backlash, Malaysia unhappy with US trade deal, Ariana Grande attacked

This week Saturday Mornings Show” host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys we celebrate the amazing, record-breaking, Singaporean distance running star, Soh Rui Yong, who made history at the Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon 2025 by clinching both the national half-marathon and marathon titles in back-to-back races. On December 6, Soh took the half-marathon crown in 1:14:58, and just a day later, he returned to the Padang to win the marathon in 2:46:23—his sixth consecutive national marathon title. The feat was far from easy. Soh recalls the toll of running over 63km in 24 hours, battling disrupted sleep and depleted energy levels. “I’m never doing that again,” he admitted after edging out compatriot Aaron Tan by just four seconds. Yet despite the exhaustion, Soh remains optimistic as he looks ahead to the SEA Games in Thailand, even as he faces uncertainty following an “abnormal” ECG result. We explore what this double victory means for his career, his resilience in the face of challenges, and his ambitions for the 10,000m gold medal and beyond.

This week Saturday Mornings Show” host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys welcome Steve Okun, CEO of APAC Advisors to unpack four stories making waves across the globe. We begin in Washington, where U.S. Defense Chief Pete Hegseth’s remarks about ordering a second strike on a Caribbean vessel have reignited debates on military conduct and accountability. Next to Taipei, where the U.S. wants its workers to be trained for chip-making jobs... raising questions about economic cooperation, labour shortages, and geopolitical ties. Closer to home, newly appointed U.S. Ambassador to Singapore, Dr. Anjani Sinha, has spoken about “building” Singapore’s role in America’s trade and investment strategy. Steve explores what this means for bilateral relations and regional stability. Finally, we look at FIFA’s controversial decision to award its first-ever Peace Prize to President Donald Trump, a move that has sparked global backlash and raised eyebrows about the intersection of sport, politics, and diplomacy.
