This lanyard belonged to a Presiding Officer who was on duty during the 2020 General Election. With Singapore’s 13th General Election held in the midst of the pandemic, various measures were taken to protect the health and safety of both voters and officials. While voters had to observe safe distancing rules in addition to mandatory mask-wearing at the polls, all officers on duty were also issued a face shield to help ensure their well-being while they carried out their duties during this period.
