Singapore GE2020: PM Lee Hsien Loong says he will see Singapore through the crisis PAPSingapore singaporevotes

SINGAPORE - Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong has pledged that he will steer Singapore through the current crisis alongside senior Cabinet colleagues and the fourth-generation ministers, even as the PAP ensures there is continuous leadership renewal.

PM Lee also said that no one, including him, had expected to meet an overwhelming crisis like Covid-19 in the last stretch of his premiership. Monday's rally was PM Lee's seventh Fullerton rally since he entered politics in 1984, and his ninth general election so far. Singapore has thrived and transformed in the last 36 years, overcoming several crises along the way, he added.

"Each was a grave challenge. Each time, we worried about the worst happening to us but each time, the Government led from the front, Singaporeans rallied together, and we pulled through," he said. If Singaporeans work together and build well, generation after generation, the Fullerton rally 36 years from now will likewise take place in a vastly transformed Singapore, one that young Singaporeans of today will be proud to have built, he added.
