24/06/24 - Morning Shot: Putin's promise to Kim & what is Xi Jinping prepared to pay for Putin’s war?
Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un have signed a new deal that includes a mutual defence pledge, one of Russia's most significant moves in Asia for years that Kim said amounted to an "alliance". Both leaders have promised that each country would come to the defence of the other if attacked. This comes against a backdrop where the United States and its Asian allies try to gauge how far Russia could deepen support for the only country to have tested a nuclear weapon this century.  Meanwhile, China has kept its silence on the deal but has so far refused to condemn the war and continues to trade with a heavily sanctioned Russia. On this episode of Morning Shot, Dr Ryu Yongwook, Assistant Professor from the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy at NUS and Andrew Nathan, Professor of Political Science at Columbia University share their insights.

24/06/24 - Breakfast Bites: Is it OK to ask to switch seats on a plane?
What’s your biggest pet peeve when it comes to traveling? A series of videos on social media of people saying no to those who asked to switch seats on the plane. Are all seats created equal (is it cool to ask to trade your middle seat for an exit row aisle seat?), and is alright for you to just simply say, "No thank you!"? Also, what do you do if nature calls and your neighbour is asleep? Is there a polite way to recline your seat? Audrey and Ryan talk about good practices, and how we can all be kind to one another while traveling!

What?? Audrey and Ryan discuss why it's so difficult to relax, and the benefits of yoga.

21/06/24 - Climate Connections: Living with lions: Clawing at the human-wildlife conflict up close & personal in Botswana
Lions are the apex predators of the African savanna, or what ecologists call - a keystone species. They play the critical role of managing large herbivore populations of impalas, zebras, buffalos, and even elephants and giraffes. In a balanced ecosystem, the number of herbivores needs to be kept in check because if you have too many herbivores, vegetation will be overgrazed and habitats will inevitably degrade. As an umbrella species, lions also help maintain a healthy and resilient herbivore population and regulate disease transmissions because they typically hunt and kill those that may be afflicted with parasites, disease or are feeble from a hereditary defect. Without lions, disease spread is more likely across species, and vast savanna grassland ecosystems would disintegrate into dysfunctional, barren landscapes impacting all other species, including humans.  However, African lion populations are declining - due in large part to habitat loss due to development and human-wildlife conflict. With humans now living closer to predators like lions, having mitigation measures to reduce that conflict is growing in importance as these predators also pose a threat to the local communities and their livestock. On this episode of Climate Connections, Dr Jess Isden, Coexistence Coordinator, WildCRU - who is working very closely with the local communities through the Trans-Kalahari Predator Programme - shares her insights on how effective human-lion conflict mitigation strategies in Botswana, Africa, can contribute to sustainable development.
