Prime Minister Lawrence Wong and his new Cabinet were officially sworn in at the Istana on May 23. In his inaugural speech, Wong emphasized Singapore’s need to navigate a shifting global order by maintaining strong ties with both the U.S. and China—without taking sides.

New Zealand’s Parliament suspended three opposition lawmakers, Rawiri Waititi, Debbie Ngarewa-Packer, and Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke, over their haka performance in protest of a controversial bill. The bill, supported by the conservative government, sparked backlash from the Māori community, with critics claiming it represented an anti-Māori agenda. This protest, the most severe disciplinary action against lawmakers in New Zealand’s history, signals a growing debate over Māori culture’s role in public life and the nation’s push for Indigenous rights.
