The People's Action Party will hold the first lunchtime election rally of GE2025 at noon on April 28 at the promenade area beside UOB Plaza . The PAP's secretary-general and Singapore's Prime Minister Lawrence Wong, along with other party members , will address Singaporeans.
The Fullerton rally, named for its venue being close to Fullerton Square, has in the past attracted thousands of office workers. The area has been a venue for political rallies since 1959, when the earliest Singapore political parties took to the podium there.
There's a lot to unpack about the Fullerton rally , which is scheduled to run three hours, so I had to call in seasoned political observers.
On The Usual Place today, we have Dr Gillian Koh, senior research fellow from the Institute of Policy Studies, Dr Rebecca Grace Tan, a political science lecturer from the National University of Singapore, and Dr Felix Tan, an independent political observer and lecturer at the School of Social Sciences at Nanyang Technological University .
The Usual Place – a podcast by The Straits Times – has moved from a weekly show to a half-hour daily live stream at noon from April 24 till May 1, the day before Cooling-off Day.
