Singapore’s middle workers matter, especially during challenging economic times.

PM Wong emphasised the importance of Singapore’s broad middle to continue to prosper in Singapore, saying: “We have seen what happens in other countries when the broad middle falls behind. The centre does not hold. Societies begin to fracture and collapse.”

He added: “Do not assume this cannot happen here. It can – and will – unless we take decisive actions to prevent it.

She may not be a citizen yet but she proudly took S'pore flag to outer space. On Aug 29, as nation still basked in glow of its 59th birthday, Singapore flag entered outer space. Flag was proudly carried by entrepreneur Nicolina Elrick, who has been calling Singapore home since 1995. “S'pore is an amazing country. I’m so proud to be here,” the permanent resident told TNP. “Everyone assumes I’m a tourist all the time, but is my home.” Ms Elrick, who is in her 50s, was born in Scotland. She hopes to become a S'pore citizen one day.

Ms Elrick. "I was like, ‘Really? I am? Oh my goodness, I had no idea." A trip to space reportedly costs a whopping $35,000 per day. And Ms Elrick earned her spot in the shuttle. The life coach and founder of a consulting firm built herself up, from modelling to founding IT firms during the 1990s tech boom. “I came from a poor and dysfunctional family," she revealed."I’m a single mother & I beat cancer. It's not a backstory one would expect of someone who goes into space. “My mindset changed after that. I was so full of joy and it made me feel healthier. I felt more driven & purposeful.”

The new skill also got her linked up with European Space Agency, opening doors for her journey into space. Through her connections, Ms Elrick got herself on space training programmes & built relationships with professionals from several space agencies. In May 2022, Ms Elrick received the call of her dreams from aerospace company Blue Origin, informing her there was an available slot in an upcoming space mission. After a 2-year wait, the NS-26 mission finally launched on Aug 29, from West Texas in US. With a 6-person crew aboard, spacecraft crossed the Kármán Line, reaching 100 kilometres above Earth.

Ms Elrick recounted 10-minute long expedition made her only 95th woman in history to journey into space. “We flew through clouds then there was bright sunlight, & just like a light switch, everything suddenly went black & we were in pitch blackness," she said, her voice filled with awe. “I just felt shocked, breathless. There's something magnetic about it. I was standing there, staring out the window, just gobsmacked. It's just absolutely incredible to see.”

Ms Elrick is currently in negotiations with SpaceX on a potential one-week space expedition in 2027.

'Every family has different challenges': Why China’s latest policies to raise birth rate could fall short. From picturesque marriage registration sites, financial rewards, to more unorthodox tactics. China unveiled new family planning policies but young Chinese say they have other priorities.
Having children was the last thing on Ms Yu Yueqi’s mind as she waited with her husband to board a 15-hour flight that would take them from their city of Hangzhou to the Maldives for their long-awaited honeymoon. The 32-year-old newlywed admits, she hasn’t been paying close attention to ongoing policies on family planning & childcare in China.

For her, it was more about “feeling ready”, a pragmatic sentiment being increasingly echoed by more young couples & adults across country who have been choosing to delay parenthood marriage, or even having children altogether, in favour of reasons like financial stability or gender equality.

NOTED: Such attitudes Is also not working here in Spore.

It work against China’s latest efforts to boost marriage too, as birth rates - from creative measures like allowing couples to register their marriage in picturesque and so-called instagrammable spots instead of a drab govt office, to practical ones like maternity insurance, expanded childcare and tax deductions.

There’s also more unorthodox tactics. Chinese women have shared bizarre accounts of receiving random calls from government grassroot workers, asking them about their plans for pregnancy.

Local habits became second nature (chope a table before you order food, obviously), and she even earned a Chinese name from my then-teacher.

President Tharman Shanmugaratnam stepped down in Jurong to run for president in July 2023, while Speaker of Parliament Tan Chuan-Jin and Ms Cheng Li Hui – from Marine Parade and Tampines respectively – resigned after an affair between them came to light that year.

Their respective replacements are: orthopaedic surgeon Hamid Razak; Dr Choo, an assistant professor at the Singapore Institute of Technology’s health and social sciences cluster; and Dr Chen, an assistant professor of marketing at NTU.

RIO DE JANEIRO - Singapore has to be realistic and adapt to the current shape of global trade, as it continues to work with like-minded countries to strengthen support for multilateralism, said Prime Minister Lawrence Wong on Nov 19.

This means bringing Asean countries closer together and linking up with other regional groups, such as the Mercosur bloc in Latin America, he told reporters on the last day of the Group of 20 (G-20) summit in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

“The reality is that trade is continuing, but it is being reconfigured,” PM Wong said in an interview to wrap up his trip, where he spoke on the impact of changes to global trade flows and why the Republic’s participation at international meetings like the G-20 summit makes a difference.
