Institute of Policy used to be under Goh CT. Now . . .I didn't follow- up, liao.

But I am sure it is still under PAP. So it means that the poll is not accurate, and the results tweaked.

[Gstalk]

Should be less than 53%. More likely 35%. They see reverse order

[Sentinel]

Bullshit poll lah...

You involved or not? I involved or not? No right?

Chey!

[joyce_tay]

Pap full of lies, ppl confidence in them should be below 50% at the very least.

With this Covid-19 saga, many will not trust the MIW anymore....

Yes, now you know why miw can only attract crooks like Yang yin, Leonard kannan and De beers wang jun tian.

Govt is slowly depleting the trust and goodwill accumulated since LKY times.. Trust/goodwill account hitting 0 value soon..

I am sure all adults with ability to think, will not agree with the poll.

Let us recall their cha- cha dance in the past half a year.

Singaporeans’ trust in their government’s ability to manage Covid-19 fell as community cases soared when the worst wave hit early last month, according to the Institute of Policy Studies.

The survey showed the proportion of people who believed the authorities had shown good political leadership fell to a low of 53% during Oct. 28 to Nov. 1, compared to around 70% in the July to early September period, results released Thursday showed. It has since improved to almost 60%. Older respondents were more likely to be disgruntled, amid constant reminders to vaccinate and avoid social gatherings, according to the survey.

“As Singapore carefully plans its next moves and learns to live with the virus, it must also balance the diverse needs of different groups with the overall needs of society,” the survey said. The IPS polled about 500 people during specific periods of the country’s pandemic journey, such as when stricter measures were introduced to counter the virus spread.

The study also showed that those who trust the government’s ability to lead Singapore in a post-pandemic world fell to almost 60% in the most recent period, over the July-to-November survey. Still, around 70% believed the country would win the fight against Covid-19. About 80% of respondents were satisfied about how authorities have kept the healthcare system running, the highest score in a category that polled sentiments toward communications, borders and other policy areas.

Singapore faces the challenge of reopening its economy as the omicron variant throws another curve ball into the virus fight. The ruling People’s Action Party, which turned in its weakest parliamentary performance during last year’s general elections, is also dealing with what has turned out to be its most complicated succession planning process.


Reopening, Social Measures

While infections in Singapore have stabilized since an all-time high in late October, the government has kept in place several social distancing measures such as mandatory mask wearing and limitations on gatherings. More recently, it said it would pause on further social easing and border reopening as a precaution against the omicron variant.

In the IPS survey, respondents were presented two options -- a slow opening if Singapore wishes to keep the Covid-19 death rate to about two per day versus a faster opening that could mean a daily death rate of about six or seven cases. At least 80% felt that Singapore should have a slower reopening with fewer deaths.

In addition, nearly 70% of those polled felt that the government should make vaccination compulsory for all Singaporeans and long-term residents. Slightly more than half felt positive about having differentiated rules for those who are vaccinated and those who aren’t, the survey showed.

Excuses and more excuses.....

[watchfirst9]

Should be less than 53%. More likely 35%. They see reverse order

53% election result is good enough to see them lose more than one third of the seats.

[Sticw]

Must have faith in their leadership. Hey, the majority 61% voted for the incumbent. Can't be that the majority is wrong lah.

Even a dead clock (analog) reads the time right twice a day. So our leaders surely have the covid under control and the people's support will be there.

Love Singapore is objective, hate everything else is subjectively. Cheers..

This is what you desire, but there are many more who would like the status quo.  Only thing is that in the next GE, their votes will wane, and that the opposition can get a one-third votes and be elected into parliament....

It is not my desire, it is their result of their performances.

[Sharexchange]

Faith? Better word should be Trust.

[kangtangman]

I doubt the oppositions will win one third of the seats in next election. Everything will remain status quo, judging from past events.

[singlon]

Singapore doing well
She forgets to read the History book.
It is closing closing down....China lost
There simply no mony.....a mirage

[RiseofAsia]

Did anyone do that survey?
