The service along the entire TEL - Singapore's newest rail line - stopped shortly after that in both directions.

Synopsis: The Straits Times analyses Singapore's latest news and announcements in this weekly podcast. 

The Straits Times' Zakir Hussain, Singapore editor at The Straits Times, speaks with Money FM 89.3's Timothy Goh and Bharati Jagdish.

The number of marriages and divorces shot up after the first Covid-19 pandemic year of 2020 disrupted both nuptials and break-ups.

A total of 28,329 couples wed last year, a 25.1 per cent jump from 2020, based on statistics released by the Department of Statistics (DOS) on Wednesday (July 6).

Meanwhile, there were 7,890 marital dissolutions last year, a 13.4 per cent increase from 2020. Marital dissolutions refer to both divorces and annulments.

In this week's episode, the team discusses the top factor that could have contributed to these rising figures and the socio-economic impact of these trends.
