Since the Covid-19 outbreak began early this year, travel restrictions have been put in place by governments around the world.

Like other countries, this made it difficult for Singaporeans overseas to return home.

However, the People’s Action Party (PAP) government “launched the largest consular operation in our history as we brought Singaporeans from overseas back home,” Dr Vivian Balakrishnan pointed out during his constituency political broadcast today (July 4).

The 59-year-old, who is the Foreign Minister, highlighted this when making the point that PAP “leave no Singaporean behind”.

Dr Balakrishnan is running in Holland-Bukit Timah GRC this general election, alongside Sim Ann, Christopher De Souza and Edward Chia.

In a speech at a Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) town hall on June 22, the minister noted that since February, they have received many calls, messages and emails at all times of the day and night.
