45 SDP members had just tendered their resignation as party member at noon?

I am surprised that they even have 5 members, let alone 45. If this is not an indication of the level of intelligence in Sinkies, I don't know what is.

The WP has not replied to SDP's invitation to discuss our parties' participation in the Punggol East by-election. We are disappointed that we were unable to get together with WP.

Nonetheless, we have not given up the effort of finding a solution to field a single opposition candidate to contest in the by-election and we will continue to work towards this end.

In the spirit of compromise and cooperation, we would like to propose that our two parties run a joint campaign and field one candidate from the SDP. If victorious, the SDP candidate will enter Parliament and the WP will run the Punggol East Town Council.

This would be a win-win-win situation. A successful unity candidate would mean another seat in Parliament for the opposition. It would lay the ground for bigger opposition representation in the next general elections, signaling a big win for the people of Singapore.

It would also be a win for the WP which would have added clout in their Town Council management and access to the Punggol East grassroots network.

Thirdly, the SDP would be seated in Parliament and we will be able to table and debate the Government on our alternative policies.

We hope to meet with the WP to discuss this proposal and see if we can come to an agreement. Dr Chee Soon Juan has sent WP Secretary-General Mr Low Thia Khiang the proposal and sought a meeting with him tomorrow, 12 January 2013.

For the sake of our supporters who do not want to see the SDP and WP go head-to-head in a 3-cornered fight against the PAP; we need to find a solution to this problem. This proposal is the answer.

We assure our supporters that we will explore every possibility to avoid a 3-corner fight. But in any arrangement between two parties there must be give and take on both sides. We hope that the WP will meet us half-way.

The SDP has our strengths and the WP has its strengths. We need to leverage on our positives to serve the people. We need to focus on what we have in common rather than our differences.

For the sake of Singaporeans, the SDP is willing to compromise and work together with the WP to achieve our ultimate objective of defeating the PAP candidate Dr Koh Poh Koon and bring Singapore one step closer to democracy.

If this is the result of our cooperation, our nation would achieve a historic breakthrough to a deeper and more effective politics in the service of our people.[/TD]

    Cy Chen If you do not have anything good or constructive to say about SDP, or do not understand why SDP does certain things differently from your own party, it would be more classy of you to simply not be here commenting. You can take your arrogant manners and judgement attitude back to the WP FB wall. Thanks

It's nonsense. No one can mobilize 45 members to resign together in a short time and the boo-boo is an isolated incident that most SDP members will be willing to forgive.

Common sense will tell.

By publishing this news SM is unfairly discrediting SDP with lies. Not that SDP didn't discredit itself, but this has nothing to do with SDP. The MSM should honour truth as a value.

Tan Fred SDP still couldn't finalise their candidate cos they took 3 sets of forms & submitted 2 set for donation declaration.
Looks to me SDP can't even agree on their "BEST" candidate.

I also just receive news that 45 SDP members had just tendered their resignation as party member at noon just now citing no confidence in Chairman Jufrie Mahmood & Sec Gen Chee Soon Juan's leadership.

Looks like CSJ succeeded again in destroying SDP for 2nd time. Bravo, not that I fancy this losers who comes & goes only when there's election.

At least there is some hope, some sanity in it still for them.
