SINGAPORE — “Oh wow, she’s hot,” read a stranger’s text on the phone of Nora’s boyfriend. She saw his response: “Yeah, do you want? I can share with you.” When Nora (not her real name) discovered in 2024 that her partner had been trading intimate photos of her with another man, she was blindsided. “I never suspected it,” says the university graduate in her 20s. “It kind of knocked the wind out of me, and I just went into shock.” She deleted all the photos she could find on his phone, but this betrayal marked the end of their fraught year-long relationship. To this day, the discovery still haunts her. “That was what I found, but I don’t know if he had sent more things or if he had shared it with other people. I don’t know the full extent of it,” she tells The Straits Times on condition of anonymity. Nora sought counselling, but kept it a secret from her family. She considered reporting the incident to the authorities, but ultimately held back.

A woman was hit by a car at Sengkang East Drive despite having right of way at the pedestrian crossing. In dashcam footage from April 4 shared by Facebook page SG Road Vigilante, two people can be seen crossing the road at a discretionary right-turn junction, where cars can turn right into oncoming traffic or pedestrians without the use of red-amber-green (RAG) arrows. The green-man light was flashing, and two cars can be seen passing in front of the man and woman, before the latter is hit from behind by a third car and falls over. The vehicle capturing the dashcam footage stops before the pedestrian crossing, with the video showing the woman getting up and continuing on her way, as well as the driver of the affected vehicle stopping by the roadside a short distance away The incident led to outrage in the comment section, with one netizen noting that «not a single driver chose to stop» to allow them to cross. A commenter wrote: «Even until today, there are pedestrians who still do not know how to cross the road safely at pedestrian crossings despite the right of way.»

With Singapore heading to the polls soon, all signs point to an intense contest among the political parties – not only for parliamentary seats but also for primacy in the ideas they champion. In the days to come, Singaporeans will certainly hear more about the policies each party espouses, whether through election manifestos, rallies or on walkabouts during the hustings. Even so, analysts say voters should consider what MPs from the various parties in Parliament have said in the last five years, before they decide at the ballot box. The Straits Times outlines where these parties stand in four key areas: fiscal policy, cost of living, foreign talent and housing. Fiscal policy In November 2022, Parliament debated the necessity, timing and extent of the hike to the goods and services tax (GST), after the Government first gave notice in 2018 that it intended to do so. The WP and PSP both opposed the increment of the GST from 7 per cent to 9 per cent, citing the inflationary environment, and suggested alternative ways of raising revenues, such as using more past reserves and proceeds from land sales.

The topic remains hotly debated, with the last five years marked by sea changes to the Republic’s foreign talent framework, accompanied by measures to lift the local workforce. Singapore must remain open to the world to stay competitive and support the needs of society, said Minister for Manpower Tan See Leng in the debate over the Ministry of Manpower’s (MOM) latest budget in March. Today, foreign-owned firms make up around 20 per cent of firms here and employ 60 per cent of Singapore residents in high-earning jobs that pay over $12,500 in gross monthly salary. To the PAP government, the figures underscore the importance of attracting foreign investments and the global talent that follows such investments, in a way that complements local resident workforce growth and creates good jobs for Singaporeans. But in a shift in recent years, it has also more pointedly recognised the anxieties Singaporeans have towards competition from the foreign workforce, and the benefits that accrue to locals.
