Glenn van Zutphen on Saturday Mornings with Neil Humphreys

🌍On MoneyFM 89.3’s Wide World Segment, Ravi and Aparna Sonnad, co‑founders of Enabling Leadership join Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys. We look at the global crisis hiding in plain sight: over 800 million children worldwide lack essential life skills from teamwork to communication to problem‑solving leaving them unprepared for the workforce and trapped in cycles of poverty. Enabling Leadership is a Singapore‑based organisation transforming children’s lives through football, LEGO‑based learning, and the arts. Their programs are EL Play, EL Build, and EL Create and are now reaching 10,000 children across multiple countries. In Singapore, EL Play is already running in three public schools in Yishun, with plans to expand and introduce EL Build next year. Each child’s full program costs just USD 120 (SGD 400), covering sessions, journals, and a sports kit. Ravi and Aparna share powerful stories of how their programs help children — especially girls — build confidence, leadership, and resilience. They also discuss how companies in Singapore can partner through employee engagement and sponsorships.

🌍On MoneyFM 89.3’s International News Review, Steve Okun joins Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys to break down a fast‑moving geopolitical landscape that is reshaping global markets, diplomacy, and Asia’s strategic posture. We begin in the Middle East, where Iran says the Strait of Hormuz is now fully open (or maybe closed, we're not sure) during the ceasefire, easing immediate fears over global oil supply disruptions. But with tensions still simmering, the world is watching closely to see whether this fragile opening holds. Back home, Singapore is responding to a US probe into alleged forced labour, with the Ministry of Trade and Industry emphasising that Singapore takes such allegations seriously and maintains strict labour standards. Steve explains what this means for Singapore’s reputation, trade relationships, and global supply chain confidence. In Southeast Asia, Indonesia and the United States have signed a new defence pact, signalling deepening military cooperation at a time of rising regional competition. We explore what this means for ASEAN security dynamics. And finally, a story that has gripped South Korea: "Nuisance Influencer” American YouTuber Ramsey Khalid Ismael — known for provocative stunts — has been sentenced to six months in a Korean prison for disrespecting a memorial to wartime sexual slavery victims.

On MoneyFM 89.3 Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen welcomes H.E. Anneke Adema, Ambassador of the Kingdom of the Netherlands to Singapore and Brunei. She's a seasoned diplomat whose career has been defined by her commitment to international cooperation, inclusivity, and the rule of law. Ambassador Adema reflects on 60 years of diplomatic relations between Singapore and the Netherlands, a milestone she recently celebrated by hosting a special lunch at her residence one where guests had to “work for their lunch,” a playful nod to the Dutch spirit of collaboration. She shares why the Netherlands considers Singapore one of its most important partners in Asia, and how both countries’ shared worldview open economies, innovation, sustainability, and multilateralism continues to anchor the relationship.  We explore the deep ties between the two nations: from trade and maritime cooperation to green transition efforts, digital innovation, and people‑to‑people exchange. Ambassador Adema also discusses her priorities since arriving in 2022, the evolving role of diplomacy in a more uncertain world, and how the Netherlands is strengthening partnerships across Southeast Asia.

On MoneyFM 89.3 Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen welcomes Anthony Lu, Regional Director of South East Asia and Greater China, to unpack Booking.com’s Traveller Review Awards 2026 and what they reveal about travel trends, guest expectations, and Asia’s rising influence. We explore the global state of hospitality through the lens of  one of the world’s largest recognition programmes based on 370 million verified guest reviews. The 2026 awards highlight a strong year for Singapore: 229 local partners were recognised up from 2025 with an impressive average review score of 8.6 across more than 362,000 guest reviews. Hotels once again dominated the list, underscoring Singapore’s reputation as a world‑class urban destination. Iconic properties such as Park Royal Collection Marina Bay, Crowne Plaza Changi Airport, Carlton Hotel Singapore, and Paradox Singapore Merchant Court were among this year’s standout winners. Anthony shares what’s driving Asia’s hospitality boom, how destinations can craft more welcoming and inclusive travel experiences, and what sets the region apart in service culture. We also discuss Booking.com’s list of the Most Welcoming Places on Earth, and how the platform supports partners in making travel easier and more accessible for everyone.

On MoneyFM 89.3 Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen welcomes Hui Ching Tan, Head of Research Insights APJ at Qualtrics, to unpack how AI‑simulated consumers are changing the way organisations understand their customers. We explore a huge shift happening inside one of the world’s biggest industries market research and why Singapore companies may be underestimating how fast AI is transforming it. Worth over US$150 billion, the research industry has long relied on surveys, focus groups and weeks‑long studies. But Qualtrics’ latest data shows a new reality: 78% of researchers already use Agentic AI 72% expect AI to take full responsibility for key research phases 70% believe AI agents will run more than half of all research end‑to‑end These AI “digital twins” built from real consumer behaviour, preferences and purchase history can test messages, products and experiences in hours instead of months, without fatigue, bias or drop‑off. Hui Ching explains what this means for Singapore’s banks, healthcare providers and retailers, especially amid a talent crunch in research and analytics. She also shares why companies that adopt synthetic data and agentic AI now will gain an insight advantage that competitors will struggle to catch.

🌍On MoneyFM 89.3’s International News Review, Steve Okun joins Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen. We begin with US President Donald Trump’s sharp criticism of Iran, accusing Tehran of doing a “very poor job” managing oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz, a chokepoint critical to global energy supply. With tensions already high from the ongoing conflict, Trump’s remarks add fresh uncertainty to an already fragile situation. In Washington, First Lady Melania Trump made headlines of her own, publicly denying any links to Jeffrey Epstein and calling for congressional hearings for survivors, a rare and forceful intervention that has drawn widespread attention. Across the region, China’s President Xi Jinping held a rare meeting with KMT leader Cheng Li-wun, the first such visit in a decade. Both sides emphasized a desire for cross‑strait peace, even as geopolitical pressures continue to mount. And finally, a lighter moment from China: a viral video of robot boxers swinging enthusiastically but landing no punches, prompting questions about the state of AI‑driven sports entertainment.

🌍On MoneyFM 89.3’s Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys  explore one of Singapore’s fastest‑growing wellness trends: daily recovery.

Rebecca shares why she’s now focused on creating a global wellness brand rooted in accessibility, community and evidence‑based recovery. From contrast therapy to magnesium absorption, she explains the science behind feeling better, sleeping deeper and reducing inflammation.

On MoneyFM 89.3’s Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys we dive into one of the fastest‑growing categories in consumer goods: "better‑for‑you beverages." Joining us in the studio is Julian Koh, Founder and Managing Director of Supergulp, a Southeast Asian sparkling prebiotic soda brand that’s riding the wave of functional drink innovation. Now, Southeast Asia is shaping its own version of the trend — one that blends prebiotics, kombucha, protein, creatine, and adaptogen‑led drinks into a broader wellness‑driven category. Julian shares why consumers are shifting away from traditional sugary sodas toward beverages that promise gut health, sustained energy, and cleaner labels. Supergulp, launched in Malaysia in 2024 and now available in Singapore and Indonesia, is part of this evolution. Each can packs 13.8g of prebiotic fibre with low sugar and calories.
