Commentary - ‘Shameful’ racist comments after Nepal disaster should never become normal in Singapore
SINGAPORE: There can hardly be a worse time to ask whether someone is “really Singaporean”. As families waited desperately for news of nine Singaporeans reported missing after the Nepal floods, some people online scrutinised their names and photographs and asked exactly that. Others questioned why Singapore should help them at all. Some said things far more callous.
Commentary: In GE2025, the political voice of Singaporeans under 45 was louder and clearer
SINGAPORE: This year, Singapore’s General Election (GE2025) stood out from previous editions in a few meaningful ways: We saw independent candidates obtaining higher vote shares than some political parties with more history and arguably more resources, an influx of podcasts introducing candidates from different parties, and active social media engagement by the political parties, candidates and content creators.

Commentary: Will new electoral boundaries affect voting patterns in GE2025?
SINGAPORE: The die has been cast. We now know what the electoral boundaries will look like for Singapore’s upcoming General Election, which has to be held by the end of November. The report released on Tuesday (Mar 11) surprised many, with the redrawing of boundaries more extensive than expected. The Electoral Boundaries Review Committee (EBRC) noted that while the total number of electors has increased, the growth was not evenly distributed across various electoral districts.

Commentary: What Singaporeans may hope for from PM Lawrence Wong
SINGAPORE: May 15, 2024, the date Singapore’s fourth prime minister took over the reins of government, will be one for the history books. But what will this mean for Singaporeans? Perhaps nothing momentous, since Singapore’s calling card to the world has been political stability. In fact, our political leadership probably hopes that this handover is as unexciting as possible, because this means that the transition has been smooth and everything works as it should.
Commentary: Pets add colour to Singapore’s public figures and politicians Original
SINGAPORE: Max the cat. Cooper the dog. Socks, Judy and Awan. Two weeks ago, these pet names would not have been recognisable to most Singaporeans. But after nine intense days of campaigning, many, especially those active on social media, would have heard of them, since they are the pets of this year’s Presidential Election candidates. But why would Singapore voters be interested in candidates’ pets?
Commentary: Rising prices of hawker meals offer food for thought over deeper underlying issues
Opinions have heated up of late over the prices of hawker food. The Makan Index 2.0 by the Institute of Policy Studies (IPS) aggregated food prices in hawker centres, food courts, and kopitiams.

This has attracted public scrutiny on the accuracy and the implications of the data.
