Starting 2026, secondary school students in Singapore won’t be allowed to use smartphones during school hours. That means no scrolling during recess, no messaging during CCAs, and even smartwatches are included. This marks a big change from today, where device use is only limited during lessons. The Ministry of Education says the move aims to cultivate healthier screen habits. But, what does it really mean for students, teachers, and parents?

treatsure is an imaginative startup on a mission to turn surplus food into everyday treasure. Founded in 2017 after its co-founder witnessed perfectly good food being discarded at home, treatsure was created to reimagine how society approaches food waste. Believing that technology can unlock smarter, more sustainable consumption, the team launched Singapore’s first mobile platform that connects businesses with surplus or expiring food to consumers who can enjoy them at a value. In 2018, treatsure introduced the region’s first buffet-in-a-box concept, allowing users to visit participating hotels and restaurants, purchase a box through the app, and handpick food directly from buffet lines, giving new life to food that would otherwise go to waste. On The Right Business, Nadiah Koh speaks with Preston Wong, CEO and Co-Founder of treatsure to find out how they’re flipping the script by letting you rescue quality food and save money at the same time.

Dictionary.com announced that “6-7” has been selected as its Word of the Year, noting that the term gained rapid traction across social media as a shorthand used by Gen Z and Gen Alpha. According to the platform, the choice reflects how digital communication now favours ultra-compressed expressions, numerical codes, and context-dependent slang. The decision also highlights a broader linguistic trend: youth-driven internet language is evolving at a pace that challenges traditional reference tools and raises questions about whether dictionaries should document, guide, or adapt to these emerging forms. On The Big Story, Nadiah Koh speaks to Jeremiah Sng, Head of Language Arts and Lower Secondary, Academia, to unpack what “6-7” reveals about language today, how slang shapes the way young people communicate, and what this means for educators and students alike.
