The people who made the headlines in 2020

Singapore — 2020 will go down in history as the year we spent more time at home and online than ever, thanks to the Covid-19 pandemic. While we grappled with the pandemic and all the changes it brought, the Circuit Breaker, the GE, the continued rise of Blackpink and BTS, here are the people who caught our attention.
1. The Leader of the Opposition
At this point, we can safely say that 2020 is the year of Workers’ Party chief Pritam Singh, who was designated as the country’s first Leader of the Opposition. The naysayers who once doubted that Mr Singh could fill the spot once held by the venerable Low Thia Khiang must have been eating their words, as the WP Chief has grown in substance this year, with nary a misstep.

Parti: Ex-maid's theft case puts spotlight on fairness of criminal justice system


In September, former foreign domestic worker Parti Liyani became a household name when she was acquitted of stealing from her wealthy and powerful employer.
She also became a symbol of perceived injustice in the way the less advantaged were treated in the legal system.
The case, which bore the hallmarks of a David and Goliath story, gained prominence as Singaporeans grappled with the question of whether a corporate bigwig held sway over how his maid was investigated and prosecuted.
It snowballed from a seemingly simple case of theft into a marathon nine-hour parliamentary debate last month about the fairness of the criminal justice system.
