Hundreds of families, friends and ordinary Singaporeans gathered at St Andrew Cathedral this evening for a memorial service to the late Joshua Benjamin Jeyaretnam, who passed away of heart failure in September last year.

Prominent members of the opposition in attendance includes SDP leaders Dr Chee Soon Suan, Ms Chee Siok Chin, Mr Gandhi Ambalam, Mr John Tan, Reform Party’s Mr Ng Teck Siong and NMP Mr Siew Kum Hong.

Also on display was an exhibition of memorabilia of JBJ including his personal belongings such as his trademark glasses, family photos and newspaper reports about him.

It only come to our attention that Mr Chiam See Tong will be retiring by the next general election and his anointed successor to take over him as MP for Potong Pasir and party Secretary-General is Mr Desmond Lim after we visited the Sinagpore People's Party's homepage in preparation for our weekly political blogs' ranking.

As we felt this is an important matter which netizens ought to know, we have taken the liberty to write to Mr Desmond Lim to publish his facebook account and Mr Chiam's testimony of him so that you may get to know him better.

Below is an exchange of emails consisting of our request and his acquiescence:
