We need it because of this reason, we see it ,'' he said, adding that people will then say"if it can or cannot ".Dr Tan, who is leading the PSP's A-team to contest in West Coast GRC, was asked for his thoughts on the exchanges between the People's Action Party and the Singapore Democratic Party, since Wednesday, over the 10 million figure.
