Preparations Begin For Singapore's GE

Singapore has launched the process for its 2025 general election by forming the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee, with polls expected between May and November. The election could prove pivotal, as the rise of the Workers' Party in 2020 presents a growing challenge to the People’s Action Party. We speak with James Gomez to gain his insights on what the future holds for Singapore’s political landscape.
