Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis are facing a firestorm of anger after letters that they had written in support of a fellow “That 70’s Show” cast member facing a rape conviction were leaked. Did they cross the line in their support of a longtime friend? Elsewhere, Luis Rubiales has finally resigned as president of the Spanish Football Association over the non-consensual kiss he planted on a female player, Jenni Hermoso, at the recent Women’s World Cup. Is the world overreacting over a “heat-of-the-moment” kiss?

The past week, a slew of videos and images of alleged child abuse at childcare centres operated by Kinderland were leaked online, prompting outrage among the general public. The chorus of indignation got even louder when it was discovered that ECDA, the preschool regulator, had failed to immediately remove the accused teacher from classroom duties while investigating the complaints against her. Is enough being done to protect our children in preschool centres? Elsewhere, Ho Ching lambasted cheaters who abscond before paying for their food at restaurants, and even called for them to be caned. Is her outrage justified? Why?

In the last couple of days, Tharman and Ng Kok Song engaged in a back-and-forth through the media about their respective independence from the establishment, which was a marked change from the general decorum of proceedings thus far. What do we make of this sudden change, and Tan Kin Lian’s cancellation of his walkabouts? Elsewhere, opinions are divided about an ex-teacher turned OnlyFans creator who talked about her experience in a TikTok video. Why are people getting so heated about her career choice?

Over the weekend, Tan Cheng Bock, a former presidential candidate in 2011 and founder of the Progress Singapore Party, came forward to endorse his ex-rival Tan Kin Lian for the presidency. This action drew flak from presidential candidate, Ng Kok Song, who called it “gutter politics”, and many questioned what backlash PSP would face as a result. What’s the big issue? Elsewhere, Japan started releasing nuclear wastewater from Fukushima into the Pacific Ocean, causing a big ruckus among its immediate neighbours. Singaporeans took the opportunity to gorge themselves on more sushi before the release, but is it really that big a concern?

This week, the Singapore Police Force arrested a group of foreigners who had amassed approximately S$1 billion worth of assets in the country, as part of one of the largest anti-money laundering operations ever. The arrests took place across multiple affluent neighbourhoods in Singapore, and the catalogue of the items seized was jaw-dropping. Why did we feel a little worried by this turn of events? In other news, Leong Mun Wai has filed a formal complaint against Murali Pillai to the Speaker of Parliament over their exchange at the last parliamentary session. Is his complaint justified, or is it petty politics?
