28/01/26 - Morning Shot: Is Singapore Still the Top Relocation Hub in Asia?Singapore has long been Asia’s default relocation choice, prized for its stability, predictability and business-friendly environment.

Kay Cheong, Managing Director at The Immigration People, joins the Breakfast Show to unpack how relocation decisions are shifting in 2026 from immigration certainty and tax treatment to lifestyle trade-offs and talent selectivity and what Singapore’s evolving approach signals about its place in Asia over the next decade.
