The People's Action Party (PAP) is a bourgeois political party in Singapore.
History[edit | edit source]
The PAP made an alliance with the Communist Party to drive out the British colonizers. In 1961, it purged its left wing, which turned into the Socialist Front. It began Operation Cold Store in 1963 to destroy the Socialist Front's leadership.[1]
