Singapore Chronicles: Opposition


PART OF Singapore Chronicles SERIES
Publisher: Straits Times Press
S$14.95
  • Singapore Chronicles: Opposition traces the eventful history of Singapore’s opposition parties from post-World War II days to the present.

    In the 2015 General Election, which coincided with the 50th year of Singapore’s Independence, six seats went to the opposition. This formed just about 7 per cent of all elected seats, but still represented a remarkable achievement after the whittled-down opposition presence in Parliament from 1965 to 2011.

    This book tells the story of these parties, which is one filled with personalities, setbacks and ideals. It also examines the opposition movement’s challenges and prospects – in particular, its potential growth trajectories and the shape of Singapore’s political system in the future.
