Description

Jalan Besar is home to residents from all walks of life, from young families and working adults to seniors who have lived in the neighbourhood for decades. As communities become more diverse and fast-paced, creating meaningful opportunities for different generations to connect has become increasingly important. Through initiatives such as family carnivals, volunteer programmes and the Horizons @ Jalan Besar masterplan, the GRC is finding new ways to bring residents together. So how do you build a neighbourhood where people of all ages don't just live alongside one another, but genuinely connect? On The Agenda, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Shawn Loh, MP for Jalan Besar GRC, to find out more. See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

What's Trending: The Reddit page exposing Singapore salaries. Would you share yours?

Would you anonymously upload your payslip for the whole internet to see? That's exactly what thousands of Singaporeans are debating after a Reddit community dedicated to sharing payslips went viral. From million-dollar lawyers and high-earning doctors to teachers, engineers and social workers, the posts have sparked conversations about pay, career choices and whether salary transparency does more harm than good. On What's Trending, Hongbin Jeong and Nadiah Koh dive into Singapore's growing obsession with salary sharing. Is it a useful way to benchmark your career, or does it simply fuel comparison and unrealistic expectations? And if you had the chance, whose payslip would you want to see most?

The Agenda: Why are some fresh grads landing jobs while others aren't?

Some fresh graduates are landing jobs within weeks of finishing university. Others are sending out hundreds of applications, making it through multiple interviews, and still coming up empty-handed. So why are their experiences so different? Despite there being enough entry-level jobs to absorb new graduates, many of those opportunities aren't in the industries young people aspire to join. At the same time, employers are becoming more selective, salary expectations are shifting, and AI is changing how candidates are screened and hired. On The Agenda, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Adrian Choo, the Career strategist and CEO and Founder of Career Agility International, to find out more.  See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.
