Others may have laughed at their efforts, but the Singapore Democratic Alliance (SDA) is not giving up the fight.

In a constituency political broadcast on Monday (July 6), the SDA team contesting in Pasir Ris-Punggol told viewers why they’re digging their heels in the ward.

When asked why the party didn’t give up since they kept losing, Harminder Pal Singh said: “We have walked the ground in Pasir Ris-Punggol for 13 years. We feel the pain of the bad policies.”

Some examples he cited include a young university graduate who’s working as a supermarket cashier, a father who has lost his job, as well as an elderly woman who collects cardboard for a living.

“These are the people we are fighting for. How can we give up?” Singh said.

His party proposed returning CPF in full to Singaporeans once they hit the retirement age, using an extra one per cent of the GDP to help poor families, tighten controls on immigration and enact fair labour policies, as well as putting a stop on irresponsible spending on government projects.
