SINGAPORE - Mr Lawrence Wong's high-profile roles as Finance Minister and co-chair of the multi-ministry task force on Covid-19 allowed him to exercise leadership in a crisis and put him in good stead to become the leader of the People's Action Party's (PAP) fourth-generation (4G) team, said political observers.
He will be regarded as a safe pair of hands with his crisis management and policy experience.
