Singapore GE updates, July 2: DPM Heng on SDP's 10m population claim | What are the election rallies to catch online today?

Dear ST reader,

Jobs, wage cuts, immigration, checks and balances - parties are locking horns over these election issues as campaigning entered its third day today. Here's a roundup.

Even though this GE lacks the atmosphere of previous polls due to the restrictions on physical rallies and gatherings, parties are taking their messages to voters via e-rallies, debates and walkabouts. Want to know when to catch the next rally online? You can check here.

We are also livestreaming them on our Live Blog as and when they happen. So, stay tuned.
