<p>A former member of Singapore&#8217;s ruling party on Saturday scored a landslide victory to become the city-state&#8217;s president, in an election seen as a barometer of public sentiment amid economic challenges and high-profile scandals.</p>
<p>Former deputy prime minister <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2023/06/08/singapore-economic-czar-tharman-shanmugaratnam-to-run-for-president.html">Tharman Shanmugaratnam</a>, 66, won 70.4% of votes, the elections department said, to become Singapore&#8217;s head of state. The country is a parliamentary democracy and Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong is the head of government.</p>
<p>Analysts said the landslide victory for the candidate seen as closest to the establishment is a sign that Singaporeans generally still trust the ruling People&#8217;s Action Party (PAP).</p>
</div>
<div class="group">
<p>&#8220;It shows that the PAP is still a trusted brand, as long as the candidate that is put forth is credible. Tharman is as credible as it gets,&#8221; said political scientist Walid Jumblatt Abdullah of Nanyang Technological University.</p>
<p>Tharman has been a popular politician, having scored several victories in parliamentary elections, including the biggest margin of votes in the general election in 2020 as a PAP member.</p>
<p>He resigned from the party earlier this year and emphasized his independence during his campaign for the presidency.</p>
<p>Usually a beacon of stable and corruption-free politics, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2023/07/19/singapores-clean-image-takes-a-hit-as-scandals-rock-the-government-.html">Singapore has been rocked</a> by a series of high-profile scandals in recent months, raising frustration among voters already wearied by exorbitant living costs.</p>

<p>A rare <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2023/07/12/singapore-launches-corruption-probe-into-transport-minister.html">graft investigation</a> involving a cabinet minister, the <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2023/07/18/singapore-political-scandals-heres-what-we-know-so-far.html">resignations of two ruling party lawmakers</a> including the house speaker, and public outcry over <a href="https://www.pmo.gov.sg/Newsroom/Intervention-by-PM-Lee-Hsien-Loong-in-the-Ministerial-Statements-on-Ridout-Road-Rentals" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ministers renting plush state-owned properties</a> have made headlines in the tiny city-state of 5.6 million.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2023/08/30/singapore-elections-singaporeans-vote-for-a-new-president-on-friday.html">role of the president is largely ceremonial</a> in Singapore, though the office is expected to ensure checks and balances on the government.</p>
<p>The president holds the key to the country&#8217;s large but undisclosed reserves, with veto powers over any budget or specific transaction that is likely to draw on those reserves, though they must consult the Council of Presidential Advisers.</p>
<p>The president can also veto the appointment or removal of key public officials, and direct the anti-graft bureau to investigate cases even when the prime minister disagrees.</p>
<p>This is Singapore&#8217;s third presidential election since a 1991 act gave the public the right to choose and Tharman will be the country&#8217;s ninth president overall.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.pmo.gov.sg/Newsroom/PM-Lee-Hsien-Loong-on-the-Presidential-Election-2023" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PM Lee said in a statement</a> he had called to congratulate Tharman.</p>
<p>&#8220;I &#8230; assure(d) him of my government&#8217;s full cooperation. Mr Tharman has also declared his intention to work closely with the government,&#8221; he said.</p>
