The Singapore Alliance fared poorly during the elections against the incumbent People's Action Party (PAP) with the Singapore's People Alliance losing all four seats.

Meanwhile, the political focus shifted towards the PAP-UMNO rivalry within Malaysia and rivalry between the PAP and the Barisan Sosialis.
