PLAN B #874: Are We Heading For World War 3? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
He served in the US Marines, became a CIA case officer, and later ran for the US House of Representatives. Now, Adam Dunigan joins us to unpack the geopolitical tensions reshaping the world, from China’s rise as a global power to the growing rivalry between major nations. While Dunigan says a full-scale World War 3 may not be here yet, he argues that proxy wars are already being fought, and that recognising this is not fearmongering, as some have claimed. So how close are we to a wider global co
PLAN B #873: Are Singapore’s Ministers Worth the Higher Pay? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
At a time when companies are freezing hiring and wage growth remains a concern, news that ministers are getting a pay increase is bound to raise eyebrows. But is it necessarily unjustified?

From the rise of the conservative “green wave” to the resurgence of Barisan Nasional, Malaysia’s political landscape is shifting. And with Singapore-Malaysia ties more important than ever, what could these changes mean for us across the Causeway? With the Johor-Singapore RTS Link and growing cross-border business activity bringing the two countries even c
PLAN B #870: Are Singles Left Out By This Year’s NDR? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The biggest takeaway from this year’s National Day Rally? The Government appears to have hit the panic button on Singapore’s declining total fertility rate (TFR), rolling out more measures to support families. While parents may welcome perks such as more childcare leave and lower childcare costs, singles may wonder where they fit in. If colleagues with children get more leave, for instance, will their single colleagues be expected to pick up the slack, even when they have commitments of their ow
