Will Dear You’s smash success push Singapore to ease dialect film policies?

Singaporean Hong Weilun was left disappointed after he failed to secure tickets for limited Teochew screenings of the Chinese film Dear You when they were released on Monday. “It is important to watch the original version because the mood, nuances and emotional weight of the film are best conveyed through the actors’ expressions, accents and subtle vocal cues,” Hong said. The 40-year-old, who is Teochew and had initially planned to travel to Malaysia to watch Dear You, may now get the chance to.

I used to also have the Klarna credit card and a credit card from easyBank, but I canceled them because I was afraid that too many credit cards would worsen my SCHUFA score. Now I'm thinking about whether a third card (e.g. because of travel benefits, cash

Michael Burry Bought Microsoft. Interesting Timing

I don't usually care what famous investors buy. But Michael Burry buying Microsoft caught my attention. Not because I'm about to copy him. Because Microsoft has probably been one of the least popular mega-cap tech stocks over the last few months. Everyone's been talking about NVDA, MU, PLTR or even SpaceX. Meanwhile, Microsoft has quietly dropped while people keep asking if all the AI spending is ever going to pay off. That's exactly when value investors usually start paying attention. I'm not s

‘Do or die’ for small carmakers: China market braces for 156 new models as price war looms

A record 156 new models are expected to hit the Chinese automotive market in the second half of 2026, intensifying concerns about small players’ profitability as a new price war looms. The mass-market segment would see an influx of intelligent electric vehicles (EVs) priced at around 100,000 yuan (US$14,740), but only leading carmakers were expected to secure large orders thanks to their brand awareness and production advantages, analysts said. “Demand for new cars has rebounded but it is not...

How Chinese philosophy influenced US founding fathers

“Founding Father, Benjamin Franklin, published the sayings of Confucius in his colonial newspaper and today’s sculpture recognising that ancient Chinese age is carved into the face of the United States Supreme Court very proudly,” said US President Donald Trump in Beijing last month. It took two-and-a-half centuries for an American president to explicitly acknowledge the profound Chinese impact on the US founding fathers. Trump’s recent declaration could be a historical first. Unless archival...
