This includes Meet-the-People sessions, estate walks and house visits, Singh said in a statement on his Facebook page around noon on Tuesday . “When I first entered politics some years ago now, I was under no illusion as to the challenges that lay ahead in building a more balanced and democratic political system in Singapore," he wrote.
“Even as the work continues, it has been my privilege and honour to be part of a Workers’ Party team that advances this cause." He added that would continue to play his part in this endeavour, and thanked Singaporeans for their continued support for the efforts of the WP.This comes over two years after the Parliament’s Committee of Privileges found that he had been untruthful under oath during its hearings into former WP member Raeesah Khan over lies she told in the House in 2020.By clicking subscribe, I agree for my personal data to be used to send me TODAY newsletters, promotional offers and for research and analysis.
