Government Of Singapore




The Government of Singapore is formed by the Political Party which gains a simple majority in the general Election s held in Singapore at least once every five years. It is part of Singapore's Political System and supported by the Singapore Civil Service . It has been consistently rated by Transparency International as one of the most Politically Transparent and least corrupt governments in the world but has also been criticised for electoral intimidation [http://www.thepeninsulaqatar.com/Display_news.asp?section=World_News&subsection=Rest+of+the+World&month=May2006&file=World_News200605244257.xml , and freedom of speech violations [http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/story/0,,1753850,00.html].

The government of Singapore has been chosen by election since 1959 Elections , when Singapore achieved self-governance. Before then, the government was mainly either a colonial administration solely or a mixture of colonial rule and a partially-elected assembly, such as the Legislative Council . The People's Action Party has formed government in every election since 1959.
