SDP's Chee Soon Juan calls results 'disappointing'

Addressing supporters and media at the MOE (Evans) Stadium, Singapore Democratic Party (SDP) chief Chee Soon Juan said his "jaw just dropped" when he saw the results for Bukit Panjang SMC, Sembawang SMC and Marsiling-Yew Tee GRC, the wards SDP contested.

He thanked everyone for their enthusiastic support, adding that he wished "better results" for them.

He added that he did not want to hold supporters back as it was late and would say more at a press conference tomorrow.

"If there is any consolation, it's just that we ran the best campaign we could, and with your support, we managed to soar in terms of where we want to get to, but you know me, we pressed on, that's all I have to say."

At the end of this speech, he was presented with a bouquet of flowers.
