Lee, who is also prime minister, added that Singapore has avoided the situation in other countries where political incompetence in dealing with the pandemic has led to a loss of trust in governments and unnecessary deaths, because Singapore has a team of capable ministers working closely on different aspects of tackling the crisis.
“What contribution will they make in Parliament — adding contrast to the discussions, they say — if they get elected as Members of Parliament? What will happen to Singapore, if they form the government?” he asked. The Fullerton Rally in the heart of the Central Business District at Fullerton Square is a PAP tradition that is held after the midpoint of every General Election campaign since Singapore’s independence, but it could not be physically organised this year due to the pandemic.
He said that it was on the Cabinet ministers and himself to have the “responsibility” to call for difficult decisions such as the circuit breaker in April and May that saw businesses being closed and workers asked to work from home. “We dealt with H1N1, and prepared for Ebola and Mers ,” he added. “We never took our eyes off the ball.”
