SINGAPORE — Singapore’s general election on May 3 will be a key test of public confidence in Lawrence Wong’s leadership.
The prime minister is leading his ruling People’s Action Party (PAP) to the polls as voter concerns grow over higher living costs and job security, on top of the economic uncertainties being driven by sweeping U.S. tariffs. While Wong’s party is expected to campaign on its track record of stability, opposition groups are likely to focus on rising inequality, foreign workers and political accountability.
