Singapore (VNA) – The ruling People’s Action Party (PAP) has promised to engage more widely with Singaporeans, including through new channels, to foster two-way dialogue.
Singaporean Prime Minister Lawrence Wong said on June 8 that the PAP will create two new groups within the party to address cross-cutting issues of mental health and climate change, while he will personally do more in his public communications.
The party will also step up its engagement efforts through its government parliamentary committees (GPCs) – party organs organised along ministry lines.
Beyond the core group of party activists, there is a wider network called the Friends of PAP network, meaning PAP welcomes anyone willing to contribute to the common goal, regardless of their political affiliation.
The PAP's action plan was announced in November 2023, attracting the participation of over 2,300 party activists nationwide./.
