GE2025 candidate Stephanie Tan leaves Progress Singapore Party; People’s Power Party changes leaders

Two Singaporean political parties involved in the 2025 General Election have undergone leadership changes. Stephanie Tan, a prominent candidate for the Progress Singapore Party (PSP), has left the party citing disagreements over its direction. Tan, who ran in Pioneer SMC and received 34.55% of the vote, was PSP's top performer in the election. Meanwhile, the People’s Power Party (PPP) announced that its former secretary-general Goh Meng Seng and chairman Derrick Sim have stepped down, with William Lim Lian Chin now serving as the new secretary-general. Both parties faced challenges in the election, with PSP experiencing a drop in support compared to its 2020 campaign.
