I read with interest the diversity of views expressed in the letters with regard to last week’s General Election.
Like many others, I am happy that the People’s Action Party returned to power. Its sound policies have benefited Singaporeans as a whole.
At the same time, I feel disheartened that Opposition parties, despite having fielded credible and qualified candidates, fared poorly in the election. I strongly believe that given the opportunity, they can provide an alternative voice in Parliament.
Singaporeans have given a clear mandate to the ruling party to serve them, but I hope the party does not lapse into complacency due to its landslide victory.
