【茶水间三问】 姆巴佩钱包比嘴巴敏感?活到老要做到老?我国能源可以复制水源故事吗?| Mbappé, Late retirement, Energy sources

 

姆巴佩说错话在中国接红卡
法国球星姆巴佩因涉华言论引发争议,尽管事后公开道歉,多个中国品牌包括东鹏、蒙牛和妙可蓝多仍宣布终止合作。国际巨星如何拿捏言论分寸?文化敏感度又如何影响商业价值?

70岁还在工作是件好事?
新加坡将从2029年起,把法定退休年龄和重新雇佣年龄上限分别提高至65岁和70岁,比原定计划提前一年。延长工作年限,是给年长员工更多选择,还是给打工族增加压力?企业又该如何兼顾年长员工权益与年轻人的接班机会?

没有天然资源 新加坡是不是只能靠别人?
印尼削减输往新加坡的管道天然气,虽然幅度不到我国每日需求量的2%,却再次敲响能源安全警钟。从地热能、核能到能源多元化,新加坡能否像发展新生水一样,通过科技突破减少对外依赖,为未来能源供应建立更多保障?

This week, we ask: Does Kylian Mbappé’s loss of major sponsorship deals in China, following a controversy over a Mao Zedong meme, reveal the delicate balance between freedom of expression, cultural sensitivity and commercial interests? Will Singapore’s decision to raise the re-employment age ceiling to 70 help older workers achieve greater financial security, while ensuring younger employees have room to grow and advance? And as Indonesia’s gas supply cuts expose Singapore’s energy vulnerabilities, can we draw inspiration from our success with NEWater to build a more resilient and self-reliant energy future?
