Official Prime Minister's Office of Singapore

The Government of Singapore consists of three branches: the Legislature, the Executive, and the Judiciary. Executive authority is vested in the President but exercised on the advice of the Cabinet, led by the Prime Minister. The government operates through 16 ministries and has been formed by the People's Action Party since achieving independence on 9 August 1965.

Economically, Singapore is classified as a high-income economy with a 2024 GDP of $547.39 billion USD. It is recognized for high rankings on the Corruption Perceptions Index and the Human Development Index.

Innovation in digital governance is central to the state's strategy, evidenced by the Smart Nation vision launched in 2014 and the subsequent Smart Nation 2.0 in 2024. The Government Technology Agency (GovTech) leads these efforts, focusing on digital transformation and the creation of user-friendly products to streamline public services for citizens and businesses.
