Election Watch Series:
Ordinary People, Special Singaporeans

11 January 2002

General Elections 2001 - the People's Action Party (PAP) won a landslide victory with 75.3% of the votes cast in 13 contested constituencies across the island-state. Opposition parties maintain their 2 seats.

As the one-party rule continued, there has been endless discussions and reviews in the aftermath - coffee-shop talk, academic discussions, media exchanges etc.

While the roles of high-profile politicians were discussed, few media reports or commonplace talk highlighted another group of ordinary Singaporeans. Be they first-time candidates, spouses of candidates or election workers, their contributions and thoughts in the nine days of campaigning were seldom known.

Think Centre recognises their dedication and firm beliefs and will turn the spotlight on these silent yet brave individuals. We bring you a series of interviews with these special individuals. Non-descript, low profile, yet full of steel and passion for Singapore.
