BGS Summarised Notes (Kay)

1) Singapore's government structure has a president who is the head of state but has a largely ceremonial role, while the prime minister is the head of government and leader of the ruling party with executive powers. 2) The prime minister and cabinet are responsible for policymaking and administering state affairs on a daily basis, requiring majority support in parliament to remain in power. 3) Key government officials and members of the board do not directly participate in policymaking, but their approval is needed for annual budgets. The government represents Singapore domestically and internationally.
