The Progress Singapore Party, which earlier announced that it would contest eight constituencies, said on Facebook:"Progress Singapore Party, under the steady leadership of our Secretary-General Dr Tan Cheng Bock, is ready to serve Singaporeans and fight for the future that we all deserve.""This General Election is not just an election to choose a government that can respond to crises such as COVID-19. But also one that has checks and balances by opposition parties.
People's Power Party chief Goh Meng Seng contended that Nomination Day should be delayed for overseas candidates to return to Singapore. "It should be at least 14 days for potential candidates overseas to make their way back for Nomination Day from today. In view of COVID-19, we should not put our citizens' health at risk just for this GE," he said.
Mr Goh, who led a team to contest Chua Chu Kang GRC in 2015, earlier said that he would be contesting in an SMC this election due to"some technicality in getting one of our key potential candidates back from overseas".
