Singapore companies are bracing for greater uncertainty after US President Donald Trump sent letters announcing new tariffs as high as 40 per cent for some countries. The Singapore Business Federation (SBF) says firms are once again taking a "wait and see" approach. SBF's CEO Kok Ping Soon and Associate Professor Simon Tay, Chairman of the Singapore Institute of International Affairs, talk about what it means for Singapore to not be issued the letters by President Trump. They also discuss what it means for Singapore businesses to be operating in a neighbourhood with so many different tariff rates.

This is a story about two Europeans who devoted their lives to the Palestinian cause and paid the ultimate price. Francoise Kesteman was a French nurse who worked in Palestinian refugee camps in Lebanon in the late 1970s and early 80s. She was a communist and saw the displacement of millions of Palestinians as a fundamental injustice that needed to be addressed. She joined armed Palestinian groups resisting the Israeli occupation. Franco Fontana was an Italian photographer who cofounded a Marxist-Leninist political group in the 1970s and organised exhibitions to raise awareness of the Palestinian cause. As a photojournalist, he visited Palestine and Lebanon, where he also joined groups fighting to liberate Palestine. Kesteman was killed in 1984 in a paramilitary operation in Lebanon. Fontana fell ill in 2015 and chose to return to a Palestinian refugee camp in Lebanon, where he died and was buried, as was his dying wish.
