Chee Soon Juan has fired another salvo towards breaking PAP's monopoly in Singapore politics, by calling for all opposition party in Singapore to work together to gain voters' trust and their votes. Dr Chee also said that the differences between the country’s opposition are ‘minuscule’ compared to their common stance.

The Chief of Progress Singapore Party (PSP) and possibly de facto opposition figurehead, Dr Tan Cheng Bock, found himself in a very familiar, yet peculiar position over dinner at a community event. He was seated at a table reserved for guests of the Temple, and found himself seated beside S Iswaran and Foo Mee Har, both PAP MPs for the West Coast GRC ward.

It did not take the authorities long to rebut the feeling on the ground that they have purposely delayed the permit approval, just because it was Dr Tan and his new, popular, opposition party. The Police have issued a statement that basically lays the blame on the delay squarely back to Dr Tan's PSP.

Dr Tan Cheng Bock has announced via his Facebook post that his new opposition party, the Progress Singapore Party, is to be officially launched on the 15th of June. The PSP was already officially registered by Dr Tan on 28 March.

More than 200 people showed up at Dr Tan Cheng Bock's first Meet the People Session last week. Dr Tan is leading his new political party called the Progress Singapore Party (PSP), and has evidently garnered the attention and support of many Singaporeans. He was grateful for the turnout and announced that his party will officially be launched in June. The Pappies should be scared of what is coming soon!

Dr Tan Cheng Bock's Progress Singapore Party has had its logo approved. It is in the shape of a palm tree with a person-like figure which signifies people at its core interest. The logo on the whole symbolizes growth, purpose, strength and life. With Dr Tan leading a new party, Singaporeans can have renewed hope that they will enact the changes that we have all wanted to see.

The PAP's worse fear has indeed come true, as they will have at some point in time take on Tan Cheng Bock in an open election. This after his Progress Singapore Party, Mr Tan's political party, have been formally registered on March 28.

Dr Tan Cheng Bock's new party, the Progress Singapore Party, has its application approved-in-principle. Thanks to him, Singaporeans have a stronger alternative voice. How will the PAPpies react to this? Let us wait and see!

I refer to the article “TAN CHENG BOCK: I WON’T NEED TO PAY LEGAL FEES BUT GOVT MUST STILL ANSWER OUR QUESTIONS” (allsingaporestuff, Sep 26).

Dr Tan Cheng Bock does not have to pay his $30,000 legal fees as it is considered to be a case of public interest. Nevertheless, many questions on the EP remain unanswered. Should we exercise our rights to seek those answers?
