OPPOSITION party members and supporters are rallying behind
Potong Pasir MP Chiam See Tong to help him succeed in his bid to
win Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC.
They have been present at his Singapore People's Party (SPP)
events last week and at his Meet-the-People session.
Two were present during Mr Chiam's visit to Lorong 7 Toa Payoh
on Sunday morning: National Solidarity Party (NSP) organising
secretary Ivan Yeo, 63; and former Workers' Party eastern committee
secretary Frankie Low, 50.
On Thursday, Mr Leong Sze Hian, 57, a past president of the
Society of Financial Service Professionals, was at Mr Chiam's
Meet-the-People session in Potong Pasir. He was there to offer
financial counselling to Potong Pasir residents.
But Mr Chiam, 76, was tight-lipped on Sunday on what role such
supporters might ultimately play.
Saying the make-up of his team will be revealed on Nomination
Day, he would only add that 'we consider all of them
supporters'.
