#524 - Penalties for Dangerous Driving Scrutinised & OSIM Mother’s Day Ad Fat Shames Mothers?

5/8/2024
This week in Parliament, MPs debated about road safety in Singapore after the recent accident in Tampines that killed two people. While penalties under the Road Traffic Act have been deemed to be adequate vis-a-vis other countries, why are people calling for increasing them? Elsewhere, massage chair brand OSIM’s Mother’s Day ad was criticised for fat shaming and for promoting domestic violence. Was it really that bad or was it just a case of wokeism? Find us here!

#523 - Less Screen Time for Singapore Children & Hossan Leong Takes Shot at Hamilton Musical

5/6/2024
In Lawrence Wong’s speech at Samaritans of Singapore’s gala dinner, he suggested that Singapore will consider additional safeguards around excessive screen time and social media usage for children in order to protect their mental health. Is this considered government overreach? Elsewhere, actor Hossan Leong complained on social media about how a foreign musical last-minute cancellation of a show made the news, while a local production that faced a similar situation did not get the same coverage.

#520 - Bank Employees Fired for Medical Claims Abuse & 14-y.o. Girls Found With Guys and Alcohol in Sentosa Hotel

4/29/2024
OCBC’s private banking arm, Bank of Singapore, allegedly fired up to 40 employees after probing claims of medical benefits abuse. Was it fair for the bank to fire these individuals even after they had returned the money from the aforementioned benefit claims? Elsewhere, a parent sounded a warning about a Sentosa hotel where his teenage daughter had attended a party with a group of guys and alcohol. However, many online commentators criticised the parent instead, saying that he was blaming the hotel for his daughter’s behaviour, which should have been his responsibility.

#518 - Shanmugam Rebuts “Sneering” From The Economist & Singaporean Workers Threatening to Quit if Forced to Return to Office?

4/24/2024
Last week, Law and Home Affairs Minister Shanmugam clapped back at British publication The Economist with a rebuttal of their article about Lawrence Wong succeeding Lee Hsien Loong as PM. His Facebook post drew many comparisons between the UK and Singapore, and so far has seen a mixed reaction from online commentators. What could have been the impetus behind the response to the “sneer”? Elsewhere, a survey revealed that 1 in 2 Singapore workers would quit their job if asked to be in the office more often. Is this just a strawberry generation mindset, or does it point to societal attitudes towards work-life balance? Find us here!
