Lawrence wong was sworn in, replacing lee hsien loong, whod been in office for two decades. Mr lee will, however, remain in the cabinet with an advisory role. Mr wong used his Inauguration Speech to warn that singaporeans face a world of conflict and rivalry and they must be braced to adapt to a messier, riskier and more violent world.

But he can be expected to try to push his own agenda to try to take some initiatives over how much. But one of the big one of the big structural changes of singapore is the population is ageing in a way that it has before. So many classes have come, from having such a young population and now, we no longer have that, theyre becoming more like japan and the have that, theyre becoming more likejapan and the us have that, theyre becoming more like japan and the us with the age population.

Four people are known to have been killed since monday, in violence which broke out after the parliament in paris backed changes to voting laws, which the indigenous population of New Caledonia say will reduce their influence in governing their own affairs. A State Of Emergency is in place, along with a curfew and the social media site tiktok has been temporarily banned. The situation in areas of afghanistan hardest hit by flash floods that killed hundreds of people � remains critical,� the World Health Organisation has said and the authorities have predicted more bad weather to come. Our correspondent Caroline Davies and her team have visited some of the remote areas hit by the flooding and sent this report from northern baghlan province. This used to be a village. Little trace of lives swept away. Only the debris. Sticky mud, heated hardening. Salvaging whats left is tough. Translation we havent got even a glass left for a cup of tea. There is nothing. This is one of the worst hit villages, and people are still trying to excavate their homes, trying to salvage what they can from the rubble. Everywhere you look, there are uprooted trees, there are bits of building and the destruction is just in every direction. Over here, more people, more homes, more buildings destroyed, more belongings, and people here who still dont have a home to stay in tonight. Flash floods tore through villages in north east afghanistan, sweeping away everything in their path. Here, a miraculous rescue dragged alive from muddy waters. Many were not. Abdul� s familys three homes stood here for 20 years. He returned to find nothing but this wall. Ten out of 18 of his family were killed, swept away. Translation we were searching for Family Members in kneedeep mud. So we took off our shoes and continued searching. Eventually, we found the bodies miles away from here. These stark valleys have seen flooding before, but no one we spoke to had seen anything like this in their lifetime. On the broken road, women walk between bereaved families. Offering graveside prayers. They will make more than one stop today. The grieving is not over. Caroline davies, bbc news, baghlan. Lets take a look at some of the stories in the headlines in the uk.

Eltonjohn and his husbandsir David Furnish have One Eltonjohn and his husband sir David Furnish have one of the greatest private collections of photographs in the world, with more than seven thousand. Now an exhibition of some of those images will open at londons v a this weekend. Theyve been talking exclusively to our culture editor katie razzall. Ill write a Symphonyjust Foryou and me. 300 photographs, many on show for the first time. Ill paint a masterpiece. Sir eltonjohn started collecting after he got sober in the � 90s, and with his husband David Furnish, now has one of the worlds great collections. Im so proud of what weve collected, because we both Love Photography so much. Itjust hits so many emotional moments for both of us. The nan goldin especially, i bought that because i thought, thats my life, my old life, on the wall. The addictions and the people we lost to aids. Yeah. Theres a lot of pain and grief on these walls. 9 11, political riots, assassinations. What makes you want to collect that pain . Because in pain sometimes, theres a lot of beauty, unfortunately, and im drawn to that. Thats why the show is called fragile beauty. Seems to me you lived your life like a candle in the wind. We are sitting surrounded by some very beautiful people. But of course, theres sadness here as well. Weve got marilyn, chet baker. And im looking at miss piggy. So theres something for everyone marilyn monroe, chet baker, they clearly suffered for their art. Did you think you suffered for your art . Well, i did in a way, but it was self inflicted. The pain i suffered was because of addiction, and alcoholism and unhappiness. But music saved me and it always has done. The couple have 2,000 photographs from 9 11. Its the first time theyve exhibited any of them. Its too raw for people who lived through that, but its good to see some of them. Theres only about four of them out. Reportage is very important. And theres a very powerful photo of the january the 6th Capitol Hill riot. Yes, i think the importance of photographs like that is that we live in an age now where people seem to want to rewrite history and want to deny truth, and i think when things are captured photographically, its irrevocable. Its important to have photographs like that and its important to keep a record of what happened. But there is little record of the man himself in the show. There are just two photographs of Eltonjohn One of his hands, and this more playful image. Completely spontaneously, he picked the plastic eggs up and put them under his glasses, and that to me says more about eltons personality, and sense of humour and irreverence than anything, and thats what i love about photography. It is extraordinary that i collect photographs, because i dont like being photographed. I find it really painful. Hold me closer, tiny dancer. Many will find pain, but also joy in this extraordinary collection a chronicle of our times. Katie razzall, bbc news. Thats all for now stay with bbc news. Hello there. Looking at thursdays weather, weve got some, i think wet weather on the way to parts of england and wales with some Thundery Rain At Times. On wednesday, heres the day of sunny spells and passing showers. Some of those showers, mind you, were very heavy, for example, here in hebden bridge. But looking at the satellite picture, you can see a stripe of cloud just here, thats a Weather Front that stretches all the way into europe. Theres our fronts. But bumping into that front, weve got this trough here, this line of very intense showers. You might get the sense that these areas of rain are merging together. Well, i think thats exactly whats going on. And they will tend to run towards england over the coming hours. So weather wise, over the next few hours, not so much of an issue. Well have some low cloud effects, some of our north sea coast, a few mist and fog patches here and occasional spots of rain or drizzle. Drier weather elsewhere with temperatures around ten or 11 degrees quite widely. The problems with the forecast come tomorrow. I think there is a risk of seeing more widespread rain initially across eastern areas of england through thursday morning before moving across the midlands and on its parts of wales and the west country as we head into the afternoon. So the details are going to be quite difficult to come by but expect the chance of seeing some heavy Thundery Rain At Times across parts of england and wales. Further northwards for Northern Ireland sunshine through the morning and a dry morning. The afternoon, yeah, you could see a storm or two breaking out. Most of scotland, in contrast to all of that will be dry, although there will be some mist and low cloud across eastern areas and spots of drizzle through the morning, the afternoon, the best of the sunshine into the northwest and thats where well see temperatures at their highest, probably reaching around 23 degrees or so. Heading into friday the Weather Pattern is still rather unsettled, but hopefully a bit more straightforward. It should be a day of sunshine and showers through the afternoon for england and wales. Some of those turning heavy and thundery. The drier weather will be further north again for scotland and for Northern Ireland, where most places will keep spells of sunshine and temperatures well into the low twenties. Thats going to feel pleasant with light winds for the weekend weather picture, were still at low pressure close to the south of the uk, a ridge of High Pressure trying to build in from the northwest. And so its again scotland and Northern Ireland that will have the dry ice weather through the weekend. England and wales, meanwhile, will have the chance of seeing a few more showers to come.
