description This article aims to delineate Singapore’s emergent politics of compromise. Taking a leaf from valence politics and selectorate theory, through an extensive literature review and analysis of GE2011, GE2020, their implications, and the relevant ideologies of the PAP in 2024, this article has delineated the key features of the political realities of Singapore, which would shape its emergent politics of compromise. These were then applied to the regulation of fake news in Singapore. The central argument is that Singapore’s emergent politics of compromise hinges on its political realities. The synthesis on how Singapore’s political realities can affect the PAP’s willingness to give in to the demands of those opposed to the party’s positions on various issues would be valuable for other studies seeking to examine Singapore’s potential for democratisation and liberalisation in the social and cultural arenas.
