Politics and Governance in Singapore<br />
2nd Edition<br />
Bilveer Singh<br />
ISBN 9780071081108 • MHID 0071081100 • 2011 • Softcover<br />
This revised and updated edition aims to make the book relevant and useful for the changing times as Singapore’s<br />
politics evolves, matures and moves ahead. The rise of new issues, especially relating to housing, ‘foreign talent’ and<br />
migration are covered as are those relating to political change in the PAP and the Opposition. How Singapore’s<br />
politics will look ahead in the <strong>com</strong>ing years, especially in the context of changes to the <strong>com</strong>position of the Parliament,<br />
announced in May 2009, expanding the number of seats for the Opposition, will also be discussed. Is the ruling<br />
party preparing for the rise of more Opposition in Parliament or is this a measure to contain it, is something worth<br />
analyzing.<br />
Politics and Governance in Singapore is written in response to the dearth of a <strong>com</strong>prehensive and succinct<br />
summary of the ins and outs of Singapore’s politics. With the increasing importance of Singapore studies in national<br />
education, this book is an invaluable read for the specialist, student and any interested member of the Singapore<br />
public. Couched in layman’s language, the book also gives an outsider and easy grasp of Singapore’s politics, and is<br />
a convenient tool to examine the past, present and future of Singapore.<br />
