PAP Retains Supermajority in Singapore GE2025 with 87 Seats

News summary

Singapore's ruling People's Action Party (PAP) has secured a decisive victory in the 2025 General Election, winning 87 out of 97 parliamentary seats according to preliminary and sample counts. This marks the PAP's 14th consecutive win since before independence, reaffirming its longstanding political dominance. The main opposition, the Workers' Party, is projected to retain 10 seats, continuing its presence in key constituencies such as Hougang SMC, Sengkang GRC, and Aljunied GRC. The PAP also achieved strong results in specific races, including a historic high of 79.29% in Holland-Bukit Timah GRC and 80.5% in the newly formed Jurong Central SMC. The election was closely watched as a test for new Prime Minister Lawrence Wong, with key issues like high living costs and housing shortages in focus. Despite challenges, analysts see the results as a clear mandate for the PAP, with the Elections Department urging the public to await official results.
