SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/Asia News Network): The reputation of the People’s Action Party (PAP) and Government has been dealt a blow by the corruption probe involving Transport Minister S. Iswaran (pic), especially since they have always prided themselves on their integrity and probity, observers said.

If not managed well, it could affect the party’s performance at the next general election, which must be held by November 2025, they added.
