Singapore Democratic Alliance
The Singapore Democratic Alliance (SDA) is an alliance of political parties in Singapore. It was formed just months before the 2001 General Elections to form a common opposition front against the ruling People's Action Party (PAP). Its 'spiritual leader' is believed to be the current head of the Singapore People's Party and 20 year Member of Parliament Chiam See Tong. The constituent parties are:
- National Solidarity Party
- Singapore Malay National Organization
- Singapore People's Party
- Singapore Justice Party (absorbed into the Singapore People's Party after 2001)
The SDA currently has 2 members in parliament. They are Chiam See Tong of the Singapore People's Party and Steve Chia of the National Solidarity Party, who is a Non-Constituency Member of Parliament (NCMP ).
