Singapore’s long-ruling People Action Party retained power in the country’s general election, but its support fell sharply, while the opposition made gains. The election was held under the shadow of the coronavirus pandemic.

Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said he has “a clear mandate” despite slipping support. “The results reflect the pain and uncertainty that Singaporeans feel in this crisis – the loss of income, the anxiety about jobs,” he says.
