SINGAPORE - Political parties have hit the ground running in their 17-day sprint to the polls on July 10, when the long-anticipated general election will be held.

In the ruling People's Action Party , the party machinery swung into high gear several weeks ago, activists told The Straits Times. Meanwhile, the Workers' Party is playing its cards close to its chest. The party put up a video clip last night featuring 12 of its members, including current parliamentarians, former candidates and new faces.

National Solidarity Party secretary-general Spencer Ng said his party is in the process of buying and renting broadcast equipment, while Mr Desmond Lim, president of the Singapore Democratic Alliance, said his party's online rallies have been pre-recorded. Although Covid-19 case numbers have dropped in the past few weeks, several opposition parties have continued to raise objections over the appropriateness of holding the election at this time.
