Singapore's central bank, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), made a surprise move to tighten its monetary policy. This decision comes as rising crude oil prices are rekindling inflation risks globally.

This global trend of central banks reacting to inflation, driven by oil, could put upward pressure on international gold prices and potentially impact Pakistan's import bill and inflation outlook.
