In recent years, Singapore’s political landscape has seen gradual diversification, with new parties like the Progress Singapore Party (PSP), founded in 2019 by Dr Tan Cheng Bock, a former PAP MP, entering the scene. In the 2020 general election, WP achieved a historic victory, capturing Sengkang Group Representation Constituency (GRC), the first GRC to be won by an opposition party. This election reflected a shifting political environment where voters are increasingly open to alternative voices and political pluralism. | In recent years, Singapore’s political landscape has seen gradual diversification, with new parties like the [[Progress Singapore Party]] (PSP), founded in 2019 by Dr Tan Cheng Bock, a former PAP MP, entering the scene.

The PAP remains Singapore’s dominant political force, and its governance approach, particularly on socio-economic policies, continues to shape the country's trajectory. However, the growing presence of opposition parties, especially the Workers' Party and the Progress Singapore Party, indicates a changing political climate with increased engagement from citizens on national issues. | The PAP remains Singapore’s dominant political force, and its governance approach, particularly on socio-economic policies, continues to shape the country's trajectory.
