Amid the intermittent flashes of light and clicking of camera shutters, nine women sat around a coffee shop table, listening as police officers questioned them. Some hung their heads low, covering their faces with their hands or masks, while others appeared unperturbed, locking eyes with photographers around them. Holding clear Ziploc bags containing seized mobile phones and identification documents, a female officer instructed one woman to remove her face mask for identification — the latter refused, indicating that she had a cough. The officer chided her for delaying the process, warning that the longer they take, the longer they would have to deal with the uncomfortable situation they were in. This was the experience of some women on Monday (Oct 7) evening as the police conducted an operation at a coffee shop along Geylang Lorong 29. 33 women aged between 21 and 54 were arrested under the Women's Charter and Employment of Foreign Manpower Act for their suspected involvement in vice activities and illegal employment-related offences.

The Seychelles Coastguard (SCG) will start the construction of a SCR 52.9 million ($3.8 million) jetty in anticipation of the arrival of two new patrol vessels. The Chief of Defence Forces, Brigadier Michael Rosette, revealed the plans during an interview with the press following the signing of an agreement to begin the construction work. «With the bigger vessels we will have in our fleet, it will make more sense to have a new and improved jetty,» he said. The agreement was signed at the SCG base at Ile du Port on Tuesday. Vijay Construction is responsible for the construction work, whereas Charles Pool and D'Offay Associates are the consultants. «They are not only the architects on the project but will be also working with Vijay Construction to ensure that everything is up to the required standards,» explained Rosette. The new SCG jetty will be located at the same place as its current one, which has been in operation since SCG moved to Ile du Port from Bois de Rose on the main island of Mahe. Rosette explained that it was «essential to build a better jetty as you can see the one we have now is a floating one and it is no longer appropriate for the fleet that we have today.» The new hard jetty will be 152 metres long, which Rosette said would make it easier to carry out repair works on it once completed. He also said it would allow the SCG to carry out tasks of lifting heavy loads, which in turn require the use of cranes. «The vessels will also be much safer when moored here than what it was with the floating jetty,» he added. Rosette also said that the floating jetty may still be used for the smaller vessels once the construction work is complete. Work on the new jetty begins in three weeks' time and is expected to be completed in ten months.

SINGAPORE — Marine fuel suppliers at Singapore, world's largest bunker hub, will be required to provide digital bunkering services and issue electronic bunker delivery notes starting April 1, 2025, Amy Khor, Singapore's senior minister of state for transport, said at the SIBCON 2024 conference. The move aims to streamline ship fuelling, or bunkering, processes by making data sharing between buyers and sellers more efficient and transparent, saving the industry close to 40,000 man-days per year and reducing the risk of fraud. The announced mandate followed pilot trials with various bunker suppliers since November 2023. Singapore will be the first port globally to implement digital bunkering at scale for all bunker operations, according to the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore.
Following the announcement of Dr Lee Wei Ling's death on Wednesday (Oct 9), former patients took to social media to express their condolences to her family and thank her for helping them. Dr Lee was a paediatric neurologist specialising in epilepsy, and also the director of the National Neuroscience Institute from 2004 to 2014. She died at home aged 69, four years after she was diagnosed with progressive supranuclear palsy, a degenerative brain disease which affects physical movements, walking, balance and eye movements. On social media, Dr Lee's former patients paid tribute to her, sharing how she had helped them in the past. One of her former patients, who was diagnosed with slight dyslexia, wrote: «I remember her kindness and admired her positive energy. Thanks to her, I managed to get into the express stream at SJI.» Another comment described Dr Lee as an «exceptional doctor».
PDP is left with only three assembly seats in post-370 J&K, posing an existential threat to the party as no members of the Mufti family are present. Despite this, PDP aims to reconnect with the masses and challenge the government, while BJP remains confined to Jammu.
Aam Aadmi Party, expanding its beyond Delhi and Punjab, gained a significant milestone in Jammu and Kashmir by winning the Doda assembly constituency with candidate Mehraj Malik. AAP now has representation in five states, demonstrating its growing influence in Indian politics.
Despite a strong nationwide performance, Congress falters in Jammu, securing just one seat and failing to challenge BJP's dominance. National Conference's chief criticized Congress for neglecting Jammu, undermining alliance efforts and allowing BJP to capitalize with 29 seats in the region.
The NC-Congress alliance's recent victory is seen as a rejection of BJP's policies and misuse of constitutional power, according to Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge. Congratulating NC leaders, Kharge emphasized the restoration of J&K's statehood as a top priority. The coalition government aims to meet people's aspirations with a transparent, accountable administration.
The J&K LG will have powers similar to the Delhi LG, overseeing key areas including police and prisons. Amendments enhance his control over critical appointments and law enforcement strategies. This might lead to tensions with the elected J&K government, but both parties may need to adapt to these new dynamics in governance.
SINGAPORE — Dr Lee Wei Ling, the daughter of founding prime minister Lee Kuan Yew, has died at the age of 69, four years after she was diagnosed with a rare, degenerative brain disease. Her death was disclosed by her younger brother Lee Hsien Yang in a Facebook post at 5.50am on Oct 9. Dr Lee, the second of three children, is also the sister of Senior Minister Lee Hsien Loong. Writing on Facebook, SM Lee said his sister was a fighter, and her character remained unchanged throughout her life. «She was fiercely loyal to friends, sympathised instinctively with the underdog, and would mobilise actively to do something when she saw unfairness, or suspected wrongdoing,» he added. Dr Lee, a neurologist who headed the National Neuroscience Institute as director from 2004 to 2014, was diagnosed with progressive supranuclear palsy in 2020. The condition affects physical movements, walking, balance and eye movements, and eventually swallowing, and can lead to serious complications such as pneumonia and choking.
SINGAPORE — ChatGPT-maker OpenAI, the San Francisco-based company synonymous with bringing generative artificial intelligence (AI) into the spotlight, will open its second office in Asia in Singapore later in 2024. The Singapore office — the company's fourth international branch — will focus on advancing regional collaboration, including work with national AI programme AI Singapore on generative AI models that are tuned to understand and reflect cultures and languages in Southeast Asia.
