'We are going to tell the incoming PM... that the PAP must keep to its promise to significantly reduce the inflow of foreign workers.' — SDP
SINGAPORE: At the next general election, the Singapore Democratic Party will focus on the rising numbers of foreign workers and the country’s immigration policies in recent years.
In calling for action to address the issue, Dr Chee urged the government to commit to a detailed roadmap and timeline for reducing Singapore’s heavy dependence on foreign workers. Dr Chee argued that Singapore’s productivity decline is largely attributed to businesses’ long-standing dependence on inexpensive foreign labour.
While the SDP’s election campaign message may pivot around what some may interpret as a contentious issue, the party’s secretary-general was keen to clarify that the party’s stance is rooted in its pursuit of national interest rather than animosity towards foreigners. “SDP is a serious political party, and we take our responsibility as an alternative voice for Singaporeans very seriously.
