The Singapore Democratic Party (SDP) has launched a new book about Chee Soon Juan and Singaporeans from different parts of Singapore has gone down to the Raffles Place just to buy the book from Dr Chee.

SDP posted a poster on its Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/yoursdp/photos/a.10150148457043455.337053.322502513454/10153449452638455) and explained how a person had cycled from Ang Mo Kio while a retiree had travelled all the way from Bukit Panjang.

Dr Chee is the Secretary-General of the SDP.

The book, titled, 'Teacher, Thinker, Rebel, Why? Portraits of Chee Soon Juan', was launched last week by the SDP.

"Through the decades, the PAP has run a vicious and relentless attack campaign against Dr Chee Soon Juan. With the GE around the corner, it is expected that the PAP will resort to this dirty tactic again," SDP said.

The SDP has thus published the book "to counter the propaganda".

At the book launch, Professor Paul Tambyah said that “the one person who can stand up and say with hand on his heart that he was there is Dr Chee.” Prof Tambyah has written a chapter in the book.







Mr Fong Hoe Fang, who edited the book, said:.“I hope that this is the birth of Dr Chee as a new man, as a new person, seen not from the light of the newspapers and the Government but from the light of people who really know him."

At the book launch, Dr Chee called on the PAP to stop using the old politics of personal attacks and to debate with the SDP on ideas and policies instead.

He also said that he looked forward to leading the SDP in the upcoming general election.

On the SDP Facebook page, one person commented, "Well done! Vote SDP for a better tomorrow for all citizens."

If you are interested to get the book, you can go down to the Raffles Place MRT, outside of the Clifford Centre, today.
