Senior Minister Teo Chee Hean unexpectedly dropped by Bedok 538 Market and Food Centre today (April 25) to greet residents alongside the People's Action Party (PAP) team contesting in Aljunied GRC for the upcoming election. While all eyes were on the 70-year-old who announced his retirement from politics on April 23, one of the PAP candidates sparked curiosity among the elderly at the food centre - newcomer Dr Faisal Abdul Aziz who bears a striking resemblance to Workers' Party (WP) chief Pritam Singh. «Pritam ah?» some senior citizens were heard asking Teo when he introduced newcomer Dr Faisal to them. Teo quipped: «A fresher Pritam Singh».

A speech by The Workers' Party (WP) new face Siti Alia Abdul Rahim Mattar has resulted in online discourse regarding candidates speaking on global issues at election rallies. At the party's first rally for General Election (GE) 2025 on April 25, the 43-year-old lawyer said that while Singaporeans meet their MPs to discuss «bread and butter issues», they would also like to «discuss the effects of certain laws or the government's positions on certain global issues». «The concern for the humanitarian crisis in Palestine crosses the boundaries of race and religion. It is something that many Singaporeans, regardless of their ethnicity and beliefs, have expressed concern about,» she said. Clips of Siti Alia making these statements were stitched together and shared on Reddit with the title «WP's Siti Alia declares Palestine is important global issue, more important than bread and butter Punggol issues?» This prompted a heated debate among netizens, some of whom criticised her for mentioning the topic during a GE rally.

National Development Minister Desmond Lee has refuted proposals set forward by several opposition parties to lower the GST rate and provide exemptions on basic necessities, saying that GST needs to remain a progressive tax. Other examples of progressive taxes include income tax and stamp duty. Speaking at a doorstop interview at the People's Action Party (PAP) Boon Lay branch on Friday (April 25), Lee fielded a question regarding cost-of-living concerns and recent criticisms from opposition parties. Lee is anchoring the PAP team contesting West Coast-Jurong West GRC, and they're up against a Progress Singapore Party (PSP) team helmed by chairman Dr Tan Cheng Bock.  At their first rally on Thursday (April 24), Singapore Democratic Party (SDP) party chief Chee Soon Juan criticised the Government's practice of handing out cost-of-living vouchers while simultaneously raising the GST rate, likening it to «an arsonist setting your house on fire and giving you a cup of water to put it out».

Mon point de vue sur la stratégie adoptée par l'État gabonais en 2025, consistant à recourir massivement aux financements pour soutenir les grands projets initiés par le Gouvernement de la Transition. Pour moi cette stratégie comporte plusieurs risques à court, moyen et long terme. Ces risques méritent une attention particulière en raison de leur potentiel impact sur la soutenabilité de la dette publique et la stabilité économique du pays. À court terme, l'un des principaux risques (...) - LIBRE PROPOS / SUJET_ECRIT_MAISON
