Pakistan to continue import of LNG from Qatar

A Pakistani cabinet minister says Islamabad will continue to import liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Qatar under a 15-year agreement, despite the severing of diplomatic ties with Qatar by Saudi Arabia and some other countries.

Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, the federal minister for Petroleum and Natural Resources, said Qatar and Pakistan last year signed a $1 billion agreement, under which Qatar's Liquefied Gas Company Limited will sell LNG from 2016 to year 2031 to state-run Pakistan State Oil.

He said since no sanctions have been imposed on Qatar by the United Nations, Pakistan and Qatar were bound to abide by the agreement.

Qatar has released an initial report into the alleged hack of its state-run news agency, an incident which helped spark a diplomatic crisis between the energy-rich country and Arab nations.

The Qatari Interior Ministry said late Wednesday that the website of the Qatar News Agency was initially hacked in April with "high techniques and innovative methods."

It said hackers installed a file and then published a fake news item attributed to Qatar's emir, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, just after midnight May 24.

The ministry did not say who it suspected carried out the attack. It also thanked the FBI and the British National Commission for Combating Crime for assisting it in its investigation.

The alleged fake news item, which had Sheikh Tamim making controversial comments on Iran and Israel, immediately was picked up by Saudi and Emirati media, laying the groundwork for the crisis that began Monday (05.06.2017.)

Kuwait's emir has traveled to Qatar and met that country's leader as part of his efforts to mediate an end to a crisis that's seen Arab nations cut ties to the energy-rich country and attempt to isolate it.

Kuwait's Sheikh Sabah Al Ahmad Al Sabah was met planeside by Qatar's emir, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, when he arrived on Wednesday night.

The two held talks, though details of their discussions were not released. Sheikh Sabah earlier Wednesday traveled to Dubai where he met with Abu Dhabi's Crown Prince Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and Dubai's ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, who also serves as prime minister and vice president of the UAE.

Sheikh Sabah also has traveled to Saudi Arabia in his efforts.

October BTO exercise will divert demand away from resale flats, analysts say as prices climb 0.4% in Q3

The Build-To-Order (BTO) exercise in October will divert demand away from the resale market, several property analysts said on Wednesday (Oct 1).They added that prospective homeowners are likely to be attracted to the new housing precincts, which are part of the 9,100 flats offered in the final BTO launch of the year.This comes after HDB resale flat prices rose 0.4 per cent in the third quarter of 2025, marking the fourth consecutive quarter of slowing price growth.HDB flash estimates released on Oct 1 showed that the resale price index grew to 203.7 in the third quarter, up from 202.9 in previous quarter. «This marks the fourth consecutive quarter of slowing resale price growth and the lowest quarter-on-quarter increase since Q2 2020,» said HDB.Resale flat prices have been rising for 22 straight quarters since the second quarter of 2020.Christine Sun, chief researcher and strategist at Realion (OrangeTee Group & ETC) Group, noted that on a yearly basis, resale prices rose by 5.6 per cent. She expects resale prices to either remain stable or experience a slight decline for the fourth quarter of 2025.

Thundery showers in the late morning and afternoon on most days, higher lightning activity, as well as light and variable winds are expected in the first fortnight of October, said the Meteorological Service Singapore on Wednesday (Oct 1). According to the Met Service, these conditions are due to the south-west monsoon coming to an end, and the inter-monsoon season setting in during the first week of October. The total rainfall for the first fortnight of October is expected to be near average over most parts of the island, with daily maximum temperatures ranging between 32 and 34 deg C on most days. In the second half of September, the daily maximum temperatures were above 33 deg C — with localised short-duration thundery showers over parts of the island on several days. What is inter-monsoon season?The inter-monsoon season is a transition period between the two major monsoon seasons — the south-west monsoon and the north-east monsoon.

Briefing - Poland's National Recovery and Resilience Plan: Latest state of play - 01-10-2025

The Polish national recovery and resilience plan (NRRP) – Krajowy Plan Odbudowy – is the third biggest plan under the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF). It totals €59.8 billion, including €25.3 billion in grants and €34.5 billion in loans. The amount is €24.5 billion (+69 %) higher than that initially approved, and takes account of a 2022 update of the maximum financial contribution, additional loans requested in 2023, and the grant allocation for REPowerEU added in the same year. Poland's NRRP has been revised three times, on 8 December 2023 to add the REPowerEU chapter, and on 16 July 2024 and 20 June 2025 to adjust the timeline and scope of selected measures. The NRRP includes 55 reforms and 59 investments aiming to promote economic recovery, while addressing several structural weaknesses and pursuing the EU's objectives in the green and digital transitions. Poland has so far received 34.7 % of the resources (€5 billion in pre-financing and two payments, together covering three instalments, for both grants and loans); this is below the EU average (56.4 %) and corresponds to 25 % of all milestones and targets assessed as fulfilled, suggesting that the period through to the August 2026 deadline will be crucial to ensure full implementation. The third payment request, covering the fourth and fifth instalments, is being assessed by the European Commission. Another four payments will depend on further progress in the implementation of the plan. The European Parliament participates in interinstitutional forums for cooperation and discussion on RRF implementation and scrutinises the Commission's work. This briefing is one in a series covering all EU Member States. Fourth edition. Earlier editions were co-authored by Magdalena Sapała. The 'NGEU delivery' briefings are updated at key stages throughout the lifecycle of the plans. Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP
