#611 - GE2025 Survey Drops & PAP Flag Reaches Everest

As GE2025 looms, a Blackbox Research survey reveals Singaporeans’ biggest concerns—cost of living and jobs, not political scandals. What does this mean for campaign strategies? Plus, surprising Singaporean sentiment on Donald Trump’s re-election. We dig into the data, the vibes, and the unexpected trends shaping Singapore’s political landscape. Meanwhile, a Singaporean climber raised a political flag at Everest Base Camp, sparking debate about devotion, ball-carrying, and whether this was a flex too far.
