媒体关注前进党大阵仗访西海岸 询及结盟陈清木称暂专注打好根基
新加坡前进党（PSP）昨日（12日）动员多达200党员，拜访西海岸德曼花园（Teban Gardens）和班丹环道一带的居民。
现任前进党秘书长陈清木从1980年至2006年，担任亚逸拉惹区议员。该选区目前已并入西海岸集选区。此次走访也遇到不少昔日选民和旧识，还有些家庭，全家都认识这位以前在阿妈宫诊所悬壶济世的医生。
《今日报》媒体则在昨日询问陈清木是否有意与其他在野党结盟，后者表示尽管获得邀请，不过目前仍扎稳前进党团队的脚跟。
“专注扎稳根基”
他坦言群众都希望看到在野党团结一致，不过具体以什么形式组成联盟，他仍保持开放态度。
“我仍在组建我的团队，他们可以做他们想做的… 但我们在看更大的格局。”
此前，国人为先党（Singaporean First Party）、民主进步党（DPP）、人民力量党（PPP）和革新党，计划组成联盟迎战来届大选。
记者也询问陈清木，此次大阵仗走访西海岸选区，是否意味着该党有意角逐？对此陈清木表示仍在规划部署该党将出战的选区，惟后者卖关子未透露更多。
不过，他坦言即便选举明日、或者下个月举行，“我们知道该怎么做。”
陈清木也在德曼花园巴刹与熟食中心，巧遇西海岸集选区议员胡美霞，陈清木亦大方祝福在本月10日生日的胡美霞。
据报导陈清木赞扬胡美霞有照顾选区居民，且在他离开亚逸拉惹选区后，行动党团队有做好照顾该选区的工作。
“本该如此，不管是我还是他人，重要的是确保这个选区的居民需求得到回应。”
上述选区其他现任议员还包括通讯与新闻部长易华仁、林勋强和郑德源。
