Trust in Singapore government's COVID-19 response high: study

Only 9% was let down by how the government dealt with the crisis.

Singaporeans’ confidence in the local government’s response to COVID-19 is high with only 9% saying they have been let down, according to data from global intelligence unit McCann Worldgroup Truth Central’s ongoing study on the pandemic.

Titled “Truth About Culture and COVID-19”, the study also found that Singapore’s figure has been the lowest out of 25 countries polled, compared against the 27% global average.

Respondents in Asia Pacific were positive the crisis would “inspire new innovations” especially in Singapore, with 58% agreeing—the highest figure worldwide.

On the other hand, 29% of Singaporean respondents raised concerns about people becoming more racist due to the pandemic, a figure higher than the 18% global average.

McCann Worldgroup’s study has been running since March 2020, with a reach of 18 markets across the world. It has been expanded to include 7 APAC markets, including Singapore recently.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
