Synopsis: Every second and fourth Friday of the month, The Straits Times' Insight editor Grace Ho takes a hard look at political and social issues of the day with her expert guests.
In this episode, she looks at how the tobacco-free generation (TFG) approach - which proposes to ban the sale of tobacco to people born after a certain year - can reduce smoking prevalence.
In the studio to explain what this means, and whether it can be achieved in Singapore, is Emeritus Professor Jon Berrick of Yale-NUS College. He’s also an Honorary Professor at University of Sydney, and an Adjunct Professor at Western Sydney University.
Highlights (click/tap above):
2:50 Why raising the minimum legal age for smoking is not enough
6:03 The countries where TFG has been carried out
8:00 Remaining gaps in these countries' efforts to carry out TFG
9:50 What TFG in Singapore could look like
11:15 Legal challenges mounted by the tobacco industry and their impact on governments' ability to stub out smoking

Synopsis: The Straits Times analyses Singapore's latest news and announcements.
One law has been talked about by many Singaporeans for months - Section 377A of the Penal Code, which criminalises sex between men.
Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong at the National Day Rally on Aug 21 announced that the Government will repeal Section 377A, adding that the Constitution would be amended to allow Parliament to define the institution of marriage.
Many people are unfamiliar with the process of how this is to be done and why this approach is being taken.
The Straits Times explains how a law is repealed, how the Constitution can be amended, and why the Government is taking this approach.

Synopsis: Every first and third Wednesday of the month, The Straits Times helps you make sense of health matters that affect you.
A white paper on the new national preventive care strategy known as Healthier SG is out. The Ministry of Health has submitted it to Parliament and it will be debated in October 2022. The plan is to launch it in the second half of 2023, when those aged 60 and above will be invited to enrol with a primary care clinic. In the next two years following that, those aged 40-59 will be invited to do so.
With Healthier SG, the government will place greater emphasis on preventive care than on sick care. It’s a major transformation of the healthcare system, driven by capitation funding, that is aimed at helping the rapidly ageing population here to stay healthy longer.
In this episode, ST senior health correspondent Joyce Teo speaks toassociate Professor Jeremy Lim, the director of the Leadership Institute for Global Health Transformation at the NUS Saw Swee Hock School of Public Health.
Highlights (click/tap above):
2:20 Critical for family doctors to enrol in system; inertia the biggest enemy for public
3:13 The first cohort of 60 and above: Why drug subsidies to bring GP pricing closer to that of polyclinics will be attractive
6:53 Make better use of Healthier SG care plan, with digital tools healthhub.sg and the Healthy 365 app
9:00 Free nationally-recommended health screenings and vaccinations, including flu jabs, with co-payment benefits resulting in actual cash savings
9:39 Prof Lim on why this is “very real free money” to help individuals live healthier lives, and his personal advice once enrolment opens

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.
The COP27 climate change conference (Nov 6-18) is just two months away, and delegates from almost 200 nations are expected to gather in Sharm el-Sheikh in Egypt to work out how the world can avoid the harshest impacts of climate change. This year’s conference will take place on the back of a spate of extreme weather events that have played out around the world, including South-east Asia.
In this episode, environment correspondent Audrey Tan and climate change editor David Fogarty speak with Mr Sandeep Rai, a senior advisor for Global Climate Adaptation Policy from WWF Singapore, an environmental non-profit, on three topics on the table at COP27 that are especially relevant for South-east Asia.
This includes how the region can adapt better to climate change, where money to adapt would come from, and what happens when climate change causes losses and damages despite adaptation efforts.
Highlights (click/tap above):
2:49 What do recent disasters tell us about South-east Asia’s ability to handle climate-driven disasters?
7:30 Adaptation can be costly. Where will the money come from?
9:47 Five reasons why adaptation financing is so contentious
16:25 Key contentious issues on loss and damage at COP27
