Leader of the Opposition Pritam Singh clarified that he might have created an «incorrect impression» by saying that Islamic preacher Noor Deros «gatecrashed» an April meeting between Workers' Party (WP) Malay candidates and Malay-Muslim religious leaders before the General Election.Responding to a ministerial statement by Indranee Rajah in Parliament on Tuesday (Nov 4), the WP chief sought to make clarifications to his statement on Oct 14 at a previous sitting.The clarifications were made of his own accord, said Singh, and had been submitted to the Speaker of Parliament Seah Kian Peng on Monday night without knowledge that Indranee, who is Leader of the House, Minister in the Prime Minister's Office and Second Minister for Finance and National Development, would address the same issue.Indranee pointed to contradictions «made outside of this House», in reference to a YouTube video by Noor on Oct 18.In the video, Noor said that he «did not gatecrash the meeting as some have irresponsibly claimed», alluding to Singh's comment in Parliament on Oct 14.
The High Court hearing of Workers' Party (WP) chief Pritam Singh's appeal against his conviction on Tuesday (Nov 4) saw exchanges between Justice Steven Chong, defence lawyer Andre Jumabhoy and Deputy Attorney-General (DAG) Goh Yihan over the Leader of the Opposition's lack of action during a «critical» eight-week period, among others.The court's decision was eventually adjourned to a later date.Here are some highlights from the day's proceedings:Questions over Singh's inaction for 8 weeksDuring the morning session, Justice Chong had asked Jumabhoy to address the court on Singh «doing nothing» between Aug 8, 2021 and Oct 3, 2021, following a meeting with then-party member Raeesah Khan at his house.Justice Chong said if Singh had told Khan that her lies had to be clarified at some point, then it is «unusual» that nothing was done during the «critical» eight-week period. He questioned if this behaviour is consistent with someone who wants to clarify the truth, or someone who was prepared to let the lie be buried.

The Sudanese are caught in a devastating civil war, driven by deep political fragmentation, with far-reaching humanitarian and human rights consequences. While President Al-Bashir's ousting in 2019 had raised hopes for a democratic transition, deep divisions between the regular Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) derailed power-sharing attempts. This has triggered violent conflict across the country since April 2023, exacerbating hostilities between communities and resulting in competing administrations, further weakening prospects for reconciliation. Many thousands of civilians have been killed in the conflict, while abuses such as sexual violence and forced recruitment of children to armed groups are widespread. Natural disasters compound the impact of violence, leaving the majority of Sudan's population in urgent need of assistance. International humanitarian law is routinely violated, by restrictions on humanitarian access, attacks on aid workers, destruction of health facilities, and the weaponisation of hunger. The conflict has unleashed massive displacement, with millions forced to flee their homes both within Sudan and across borders, overwhelming neighbouring states and threatening to further destabilise the Horn of Africa. Regional and international players back rival factions according to complex geostrategic interests in this resource-rich country on the Red Sea. These external alliances fuel the conflict, notably contributing to the proliferation of arms, and make it particularly difficult to achieve consensus or pursue a sustainable solution at the United Nations level. Several competing peacemaking initiatives have been launched with little progress, although a roadmap agreed on 12 September 2025 has raised cautious optimism among international mediators. The European Union (EU) has intensified its humanitarian response and plays a leading role in coordinating peace initiatives. The European Parliament has consistently urged the EU and other stakeholders to maintain pressure on all parties to cease hostilities and to ensure that Sudanese civil society is genuinely included in dialogue towards a sustainable solution.
