Singapore GE2020: PPP's Goh Meng Seng to contest MacPherson SMC singaporevotes
SINGAPORE - The People's Power Party secretary-general Goh Meng Seng on Thursday said he will contest MacPherson SMC, where he is expected to face off against the People's Action Party's Tin Pei Ling.
When contacted, the 50-year-old confirmed that he would stand in the single seat, and said more details will be released later on Thursday. On Tuesday, PPP announced plans to field candidates in the Radin Mas and MacPherson SMCs, two areas where other opposition parties have backed out. Mr Goh said his party, which he formed to run in the last election in 2015, has two core principles - to ensure every Singaporean has a choice to vote for different parties, and to avoid three-cornered fights.
