Singapore political parties' politicians' views on homosexuality

Since the early 21st century, Singapore's LGBT community has become increasingly aware of the power of the 'pink vote' to aid them in their struggle for equality. Journalists from the mainstream, LGBT, human rights and civil society activist media grew more emphatic in querying politicians regarding their views on equal rights for LGBT Singaporeans. These quotes were published and accessible to the general public for comment. The LGBT community became more inclined to vote for political parties which supported equal rights for them above other considerations. This was because after basic economic needs were fulfilled, spiritual and human rights aspirations strode towards the forefront.
