House visits continue at Bukit Panjang

Singapore Democrats
The Singapore Democrats kept up with our goal to visit every
block of flats at the Bukit Panjang constituency yesterday to
garner support for the upcoming elections expected to be held in
the first-half of this year.
Members and volunteers knocked on doors at the estate handing
out flyers and selling The New Democrat. The residents were
generally responsive. As before several whom we spoke to said that
they were concerned about the cost of living.
The Democrats have been visiting the constituency over the last
few years and continue to build up ground support. While we
continue to lead in the use of the new media for our political
work, we are also at the forefront when it comes to establishing
our ground presence and meeting the voters.
However, compared to the PAP we are still
at a great disadvantage. This is because the ruling party uses the
Residents’ Committees and other state resources to do its work.
The only way that we are going to overcome this huge hurdle is
for Singaporeans to step forward and help us do our house visits.
Every door we knock and every resident we speak to is going to
increase the number of votes the SDP
receives.
As we press on, we ask our supporters to step forward and give
us a hand. Democracy is not a spectator sport. Singaporeans cannot
just rely on party members to do all the work. Everyone must pitch
in and do their part. It is only when all our supporters roll up
their sleeves and do their bit in this Herculean task will we be
able to make a difference.
Please email us at [email protected] and volunteer. Help us
build up democracy in Singapore. We need your support.
Be Our Supporters
