Pritam Singh holds on to party chief position after secret vote at WP special cadres conference

Several former CEC members were not elected but may be co-opted later. They include Non-Constituency MP Andre Low, Aljunied GRC MP Fadli Fawzi, Mr Nathaniel Koh, Mr Ang Boon Yaw, Mr Kenneth Foo and Ms Lee Li Lian.

At the cadre conference, Mr Singh gave an account of the December 2025 court decision and took questions from cadres, said Mr Giam. The discussion was robust and civil, and Mr Singh answered all questions put to him, he added.

Cadres then voted – “well in excess of the supermajority” – for Mr Singh to remain secretary-general, Mr Giam said.

“This reflects the party’s commitment to the democratic process and due process given to Mr Singh, and to everybody who wanted to requisition this special meeting,” said Mr Giam, who was among those re-elected to the CEC.

The outcome reflected the “considered judgment” of WP’s cadres, the party said in a statement. The subsequent election of a new CEC had established a clear democratic mandate for the next term, it added.

“The party is united behind its leadership and remains fully focused on its work for all Singaporeans in parliament and on the ground. We continue the work of building a more balanced political system for Singapore.”
