Singapore Democratic Alliance Discussion
United National Front ROS: 0171/1969 UEN: S70SS0008D Registered: 6 March 1970 Symbol: Victory hand sign First formulated on 28 April 1969, it was an alliance comprising SCP, SIC, AI and PMS and its main goal was to work towards re-merger with Malaysia. After costly election defeats in the 1972 GE and infighting, most of its members formed and shifted to JPS.
Singapore Chinese Party ROS: 0016/1949 UEN: S50SS0003G Registered: 26 September 1950 Symbol: Four-point star Presently the earliest registered party in the records, it was previously the Singapore arm of MCA Malaya, which still exists today as Malaysian Chinese Association and is a component of Malaysia's ruling Barisan Nasional. Similar to its counterpart, it was allied to Singapore's UMNO and MIC extensions. On 2 October 1967, it was renamed SCP after a new law came into effect in December 1966 to disallow local parties from being proxies of overseas parties. However, it did not cite this as a reason for name change and proceeded to adopt MCA youth wing's symbol. Thereafter, it entered elections under UNF, which it was a founding party of, until lapsing into inactivity in the seventies.
