The Online Citizen A Community of Singaporeans TOC just received a press release from Reform Party Sec Gen Kenneth Jeyaretnam regarding Reform Party's withdrawal of application to join SDA. We reproduce it in full.
Withdrawal of Application to Join the SDA
The Reform Party notes today’s press reports and wishes to announce that we have withdrawn our application to join the Singapore Democratic Alliance (SDA).
We continue to admire Mr. Chiam for reaching out beyond his safe seat and feel we have much common ground still. The people are ready for an alliance and we will continue to explore ways of allowing Mr. Chiam and the SPP to join with TeamRP in forming a dream team to contest the next election.
Even if this is not possible, the Reform Party continues to gain in strength and support and we are confident of the appeal and credibility of our policies and candidates.
