Singapore: Deputy Prime Minister Lawrence Wong said it is “a matter of time”.
This could happen “before or after” the next general election, which must be held by 2025, added Wong, who is also Finance Minister.The last time he spoke publicly about succession was in August 2022.
Wong also fielded questions about integrated resorts and Singapore’s exclusion from the United States’ Summit for Democracy, which was held twice and involved more than 100 nations. “With Osaka, we will be very happy to exchange notes and continue learning from each other’s experience,” Wong said. External surveys, he noted, have shown how Singaporeans held a high level of trust in the Government and public agencies.
