SINGAPORE — Presidential candidate Tan Kin Lian on Wednesday defended the endorsement he has received from opposition politicians Dr Tan Cheng Bock and Mr Tan Jee Say, saying that they have both done so in their personal capacity and as such it is not"party politics".
In response to this, Mr Tan said:"If I am elected as president, I will exercise my constitutional duties with an independent mind and will always act in the interest of the people.” Mr Tan, who distributed flyers while speaking to residents and shopkeepers, added:"I'm also glad that my two opponents are now discussing between themselves the problem that they face. So I'm out of that discussion. So I can focus my time on how to reach out to the people and what is important to them."
He also apologised for cancelling an online rally — which was planned for Wednesday night — due to a “conflict of priority”. Mr Tan told the media that he will be spending time with his family on Cooling-off day, with plans to have a steamboat dinner.
