Singaporeans Remain Cohesive in Aspiring for the Country's Brightest Prospects, Affirms President Tharman
🔥 accompany me on this wild ride as we dive headfirst into the thrilling aftermath of Singapore's General Election 💥
🌴 As the pollen settles and the balloons deflate, President Tharman Shanmugaratnam, with a breeze of relief in his tone, proclaimed on his Facebook post that Singaporeans "remained steadfast in their longing for the brightest future for our magnificent island."
🌐 It's been a week since the landslide victory of the People's Action Party (PAP) in the elections, and tension has dissipated as the economy has, well, economy-ed smoothly. Meanwhile, Australia's Labour Party and Canada's Liberal Party, both known for their progressive leanings, snatched triumphs in their respective elections, plagued by inflation struggles and Trump tariffs 🇦🇺🇨🇦
👨🦳 "The General Elections are closed. But the story of Singapore is not," Mr. Tharman added, a twinkle in his eye. "Singapore: The victor."
💥 This was the PAP's first General Election under PM Lawrence Wong, and it swept up an astounding 87 out of 97 seats, increased its votes from 61.2% to 65.57%, snatched hotly contested wards, and widened its winning margin in most constituencies 📈
🤝 Mr. Tharman lavished congratulations upon PM Wong on his impressive win and, in a classic display of good sportsmanship, officially extended an invite to him to form the next government 🏛️
- As we reflect on Singapore's General Election (GE2025), let's spare a thought for the opposition parties who, despite a valiant effort, could not challenge the People's Action Party (PAP)'s dominance.
- The PAP's impressive victory, with 87 out of 97 seats secured, has left many questioning the state of politics in Singapore, leading to discussions on policy-and-legislation and potential polarisation.
- Meanwhile, the global political landscape continues to unfold, with the Australian Labour Party and Canadian Liberal Party facing challenges such as inflation and international tariffs, while Singapore, under the leadership of the PAP, faces the future with confidence.
- As Singaporeans celebrate the victory of their party, it's important to remember the importance of constructive politics and dialogue, ensuring a bright future for our country beyond GE2025.
