CHEE SOON JUAN’S MOTHER PASSES AWAY

The Singapore Democratic Party’s chief Chee Soon Juan announced on his Facebook that his mother passed away earlier on August 21.

Chee shared that it was “difficult” for her during the last few months but she is no longer in pain now.

He shared a couple of photos of himself with his mother.

SDP’s former assistant treasurer Jaslyn Go recalled that Chee’s mother supported him at many of his SDP rallies even since he joined the party.

She said: “CSJ’s mother comes to almost all of the SDP’s rallies. She has been doing this since he joined the Party. During one of the GE 2011 rallies, she came to me and told me that it pains her to read the local newspapers that portray her son negatively.”
