Jamus Lim added that the WP helps foster unity among Singaporeans when they highlight issues that could otherwise be ignored.

“Even when we disagree with the policies of the ruling party, we are still Singaporeans who love our country, and our qualified objections are always still in service of what we believe is for the greater good of our Little Red Dot,” the opposition MP underlined, adding that this is the reason why calls to unity, something the new Prime Minister had also stressed, “are also deeply meaningful to us.
“One of the reasons why we have agitated along the lines we have—about minimum wages, smaller class sizes, helping unemployed workers with redundancy insurance, and recognizing an official poverty line, among others—is because, too often, we see those who are above-average in traditional academic and professional fields thrive in the current system, but those who are different face a much greater uphill struggle.
