IT MAY not be prepared to take over by the May 7 polls, but the
opposition could form an alternative government by the next
election, said opposition veteran Chiam See Tong on Saturday
morning.
He was responding to challenges made by the People's Action
Party on the readiness of the opposition to form government.
'If the people want an alternative government, the opposition
shall give it to them,' he said to reporters at a walkabout in Toa
Payoh.
And he stressed that any transition of power will be done
smoothly and will not shake Singapore's stability.
Mr Chiam is leading a Singapore People's Party team which will
contest Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC.
