The People’s Action Party (PAP), Singapore’s ruling party since 1959, was founded by Lee Kuan Yew and is associated with clean governance—symbolised by its all-white attire. Its long tenure has shaped Singapore’s independence and development. Interestingly, in 1959, even Malaysia’s UMNO won seats in Singapore’s elections. That year marked the first full general election where all seats were contested by vote, shifting power away from British appointment.The Workers’ Party (WP), established in 1957 by David Marshall, only gained significant traction in 1981 with J.B. Jeyaretnam’s victory. It later grew stronger under Low Thia Khiang’s leadership and has since become the most prominent opposition party. In contrast, the Progress Singapore Party (PSP) is relatively new, founded in 2019 by ex-PAP MP Dr Tan Cheng Bock. Despite its short history, PSP made waves in GE2020 by securing NCMP seats and narrowly losing West Coast GRC, and they’re now contesting in the new West Coast-Jurong West GRC.The Singapore Democratic Party (SDP), initially led by Chiam See Tong and later by Chee Soon Juan, once held three seats in Parliament. However, after internal conflict, Chiam left and formed the Singapore People’s Party (SPP) in 1994, which held a seat in Parliament from 1997 to 2011. SPP was also part of the Singapore Democratic Alliance (SDA)—an opposition coalition that Chiam created. Over time, SDA transitioned from a coalition to a standalone party, now known more for its bright uniforms and Desmond Lim.Apart from these major players, smaller parties like the National Solidarity Party, Singapore United Party, Red Dot United, People’s Voice, Reform Party, Democratic Progressive Party, and People's Power Party have formed alliances. In 2023, two unofficial groupings emerged: The Coalition (NSP, SPP, SUP, RDU) and PAR (Peoples Voice, Reform Party, DPP)
