    S1E103: Why the Middle East war offers a lesson in India’s priorities Nov 23, 2023
    Show notes

    Hear the parallels to the crisis and why India has more immediate strategic interests in the Indian Ocean than in the Pacific.

    Synopsis: Every fourth Friday of the month, The Straits Times' US bureau chief Nirmal Ghosh shines a light on Asian perspectives of global and Asian issues with expert guests.

    While partnerships to its east - and with the United States - are deepening, India’s strategic interests remain more naturally weighted towards its west, and to the Indian Ocean.

    Indian officials have growing concerns about when China will have a carrier strike group or other large capabilities in the Indian Ocean, which is India's neighbourhood from the Gulf of Aden to the Straits of Malacca. For India, the Indian Ocean matters not just for security, but for economic, energy, and diaspora reasons.

    India also has to navigate a fundamental contradiction with the United States. The US believes that it should be the pre-eminent power in the world, while India sees a world evolving towards multi-polarity in which it can punch above its weight and play a proper role.

    In this episode, unpacking India’s strategic priorities are Dr Satu Limaye, vice-president and director of the East West Center in Washington DC, and Dr Aparna Pande, director of the Initiative On The Future of India and South Asia at the Hudson Institute, also in Washington, DC.

    Highlights (click/tap above):

    1:05 India's relationship with Israel: Why many in the "Indian right" see Israel as a model and believe India is in a similar position in a "similarly hostile neighbourhood"

    2:56 India's support for a two-state solution in the Middle East remains; its foreign policy is consistent but there are nuances to be observed

    3:45 "Nuance and navigate": Keywords key to understanding India, which is managing a land and border dispute with China, and being worried about China's growing People's Liberation Army Navy capability and incursions into the Indian Ocean

    8:50 Parallels to Middle East crisis: 9 million Indian citizens in the Gulf and India has in the past had to evacuate them when there are conflicts in the region

    10:30 The world order India is facing now, and why it's tougher than it was during the Cold War era; deconstructing India's interests

    18:10 Has India been successful in cultivating partnerships in its "maritime neighbourhood"? Why China's money can help it compete in a tricky region

    26:00 Can India do more in other critical areas instead of trying to outspend China?

    S1E8: Can Singapore host an Asian Games or a World Cup? Nov 21, 2023
    Show notes

    We discuss if Singapore is capable of hosting a major sporting event.

    Synopsis: Every fourth Wednesday of the month, The Straits Times dives into a sports topic and tackles the hard questions with its guests on Hard Tackle.

    A Fifa World Cup or perhaps a Commonwealth Games being hosted in Singapore in the future, have been discussion points in the last month.

    In early October, it was reported that Indonesia were in discussions with Australia about a possible joint bid to host the 2034 football World Cup along with Malaysia and Singapore. This ultimately came to nothing officially as Saudi Arabia were the sole bidders.

    But more recently, at its general assembly held in Singapore, the Commonwealth Games Federation spoke up about the possibility of Singapore being future hosts.

    Sports reporter Deepanraj Ganesan is joined by former CEO of Sport Singapore Lim Teck Yin and Singapore Aquatics president Mark Chay as they discuss if Singapore is capable of hosting a major sporting event in the future.

    Highlights (click/tap above):

    3:22 What do cities and countries stand to gain from hosting sporting events?

    8:57 How Singapore became hosts of World Aquatics Championships and what it involves

    14:00 Was Singapore ever a viable host for a football World Cup?

    16:50 Mark Chay and Teck Yin weigh in on whether Singapore can play hosts to major sporting events

    21:15 Will cost be a concern for hosting major events

    S1E18: What investors should know in a “higher for longer” interest rate environment Nov 19, 2023
    Show notes

    Find out whether investors should still remain in the market.

    Synopsis: Every third Monday of the month, hosts Lee Su Shyan and Ven Sreenivasan - both associate editors and senior columnists at The Straits Times - offer you an extra edge in managing your hard-earned money.

    In this episode, Su Shyan and Ven discuss the recent pause in rate hikes by the US Federal Reserve. There are signals that rates may have to remain higher for longer than markets had initially expected, if inflation is to sustainably return to the Fed’s 2% target.

    They discuss the implications for businesses and investors as well as savers and borrowers.

    Highlights (click/tap above):

    2:40 Tricky to tame US inflation; any decision the Fed makes will be data-driven

    S1E111: Coral reefs can recover - but can they keep up with warming seas? Nov 19, 2023
    Show notes

    Better protection, waste management imperative for coral reef survival.

    Synopsis: Every first and third Monday of the month, The Straits Times analyses the beat of the changing environment, from biodiversity conservation to climate change.

    Coral reefs occupy only about 0.2% of the ocean floor, yet they are home to a quarter of all marine life. But oceans absorb most of the heat trapped in the atmosphere due to increasing greenhouse gases; this has caused oceans to warm and become more acidic, and there has been a lot of damage to corals. The corals can recover, but can they keep up?

    In this episode, The Straits Times’ US Bureau Chief Nirmal Ghosh discusses the risk to, and the resilience of, coral reefs, with experts on either side of the world - Jennifer Pollom in Florida, executive director of the Ocean Conservation Foundation and director of conservation for Rainbow Reef Dive Centre, and marine ecologist Dr Jani Tanzil, facility director at St John’s Island National Marine Laboratory in Singapore.

    Highlights (click/tap above):

    00:42 Australia's Great Barrier Reef has suffered six mass bleaching events between 1998 and 2022 - with back-to-back events in 2016 and 17.

    02:58 In Key Largo, month over month photographs of massive deterioration

    04:51 In the Gulf of Thailand, some low levels of bleaching in the shallow waters - but it's nothing like what was seen in 2016 in Southeast Asia.

    05:55 Heat waves are pretty typical in South Florida, but this is the largest bleaching event that we've basically ever seen.

    08:08 Human anthropogenic stress - like sedimentation - has a huge additional, negative synergistic effect with global warming.

    10:16 Instant morbidity in shallow reefs in Florida

    11:17 Huge concern for the future because the reefs are what everybody comes to, to see, to snorkel, to scuba dive, and also to fish.

    12:38 There has been a rise in conservation tourism in Southeast Asia - a good thing overall.

    14:15 In Indonesia over a million corals have been transplanted, but only a fraction actually followed throughStandards on what constitutes green investments: Why this is important

    18:27 Wish list : more protection, more waste management

    Learn about digital therapeutics.

    Synopsis: Every first and third Wednesday of the month, The Straits Times helps you make sense of health matters that affect you.

    Traditional healthcare is based on doctor and hospital visits, and it can take a long time to obtain appointments to see a healthcare professional.

    S1E79: 'Book Club' Pt 1! Dissecting Britney Spears' memoir The Woman In Me Nov 09, 2023
    Show notes

    Part One of the bombshells the pop star dropped in her best-selling book.

    Synopsis: Each month, The Straits Times examines the ins and outs of pop culture in the Asian entertainment and Hollywood scene.

    After being freed from a 13-year long conservatorship, pop diva Britney Spears released her highly anticipated memoir The Woman In Me on Oct 24. The book is a smash hit and a New York Times best-seller, with 2.4 million copies sold worldwide in just a week. Previously unknown bombshells - like how Spears aborted her child with former flame and pop star Justin Timberlake - dominated headlines.

    The book charts the now 41-year-old Spears' journey to superstardom during her childhood and adolescent years and later details of how fame, failed relationships with stars like Justin Timberlake and Kevin Federline and abuse derailed her life and cornered her into an exploitative conservatorship.

    She was involuntarily placed under the conservatorship in 2008, during which she lost the ability to make basic decisions about her finances, career, life and medical care. Spears was freed from the conservatorship only in 2021.
    In the first of two parts, #PopVultures host Jan Lee, who read the book from cover to cover, shares her most memorable takeaways from the book. Here is what she talks about in Part One.

    3:52 Is The Woman In Me well-written or trustworthy? Does Spears show self-reflection and introspection in the book?

    9:28 The Justin Timberlake-era of Britney's life

    23:33 Why Britney's love story with Kevin Federline is tragic from the get-go
