Abstract

ABSTRACT The 2020 Singapore General Election stood out on a number of counts, the most important being the decline in national votes for the ruling party, the People’s Action Party, and its historic loss of three wards, one single member seat and two group representation constituencies. Of its 27 new candidates, there were no Indian candidates. This article analyses the representation of Indians in Singapore’s politics, tracing this since the onset of general elections in 1948. Indian political presence in the ruling and opposition political parties will be looked at, and what this means for Singapore’s politics discussed in this article.
