The stakes have hardly been higher than now due to the Covid-19 crisis, said Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong during his lunchtime rally today (July 6), which was live-streamed on Facebook and YouTube.

With much riding on the 2020 General Election, PM Lee urged Singaporeans not to be “taken for a ride” by the opposition parties.

He said: “The opposition says they are offering Singaporeans insurance in case you need it.

“Don’t buy insurance from someone on a promise, especially when you have reason to suspect this company cannot pay out on the insurance, and their cheques will bounce.”

With the country in the “middle of a crisis”, he criticised the opposition parties for talking as though “the crisis did not exist”, staying “completely silent on how to tackle Covid-19 — both during the last six months and in this election campaign.”
