Singapore's PAP elected a new committee member as global leaders agreed on a climate finance deal.

At a recent conference, the People's Action Party (PAP) in Singapore elected its 38th Central Executive Committee, with Transport Minister Chee Hong Tat joining for the first time. Meanwhile, Singapore's Prime Minister Lawrence Wong defended the government's efforts to manage inflation, though netizens criticized the PAP, pointing to policies like GST increases as exacerbating cost-of-living issues. Separately, 190 nations agreed on a climate finance deal, with wealthy countries to pay at least $300 billion annually by 2035 to aid poorer nations affected by climate change.
