Dr Chee Soon Juan is officially setting his sights on the next GE which must be called sometime before the end of 2016, but he has not yet decided which constituency to contest in.
He missed the last two General Elections thanks to being declared bankrupt over the inability to pay the compensation in a series of civil lawsuits brought against him by Lee Kuan Yew and Goh Chok Tong about 'defamatory' remarks made during the GE2001 campaigning.
Dr Chee is the secretary general of the Singapore Democratic Party (SDP) and one area that they are considering contesting is the PAP stronghold of Tanjong Pagar.
This is a GRC which has typically been a PAP walkover with no opposition contesting against Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew and his team. It is also the constituency where SDP has been doing active walkabouts in the last few years.
Commenting on the elections generally, Dr Chee said that Singaporeans see the avoidance of a multi-cornered fight as a very important issue. This was seen particularly in the Punggol East by-election where SDP had pulled out at the last minute.
Perhaps this was a lesson that many Singaporeans learnt from the most recent Presidential elections where many felt that opposition votes were 'split' and this allowed the PAP's Tony Tan to win the Presidency despite only winning 35% of votes.
Dr Chee said that it is important not to split the votes and so there is quite a bit to think about when the different opposition parties decide upon which constituencies to contest in.
