Pritam Singh, the leader of Singapore's largest opposition party, has been stripped of his title as the Leader of the Opposition.
The move was announced by Prime Minister Lawrence Wong on Thursday, one day after parliament approved a motion that said Singh was "unsuitable" for the role because he was convicted of lying to a parliamentary committee.
Singh, 49, is currently one of the most recognisable faces in Singapore's political scene, which has long been dominated by the ruling People's Action Party (PAP).
He's also the face of a new generation of opposition politicians - though his recent political career has been marked by a series of challenges.
Singh, who graduated from the National University of Singapore and King's College London, first became a member of parliament in 2011.
