Young Democrats: Building our youths for the future
As a youth wing of the Singapore Democratic Party, we believe in the ideals and aims of our mother party. That means promoting human rights and democracy in authoritarian Singapore. Set up in 1999, we believe that Young Democrats (YD) can only do this with a base of dedicated and passionate youths who are committed to the ideals and willing to work to make it happen.
There are plenty of reasons to join the existing stronghold of PAP or participate in one of the allocated youth projects if you want to be involved in politics. But nothing beats joining the Young Democrats, the true liberal and progressive reformers of Singapore.
My fellow Young Democrat, Ms Solange Chee, and I recently attended a seminar in Belgrade, Serbia, where activists gathered to learn about the values of Liberalism and how they influenced societies around the world.
It was also an opportunity to learn from each other in our struggles to bring about democratic change to our countries. The seminar also discussed global youth unemployment and related subjects like the Arab Spring Revolution.
The Young Democrats attended the annual congress of the Parti KeAdilan Rakyat in JB where leaders spoke on readying the party for the general elections expected to be called in Mäsia soon.
The YDs pledge to put in our best in order to give the electorate what they have been clamouring for all these years: A well-managed and effective electoral campaign worthy of their votes.
Throughout history youths have been at the forefront of change. The fall of the dictatorships in Central Europe to Asia to Latin America were often precipitated by students who dared to speak up against the regimes that shackled them.
Under the PAP, the Govt actively controls the practice of religious faiths by appointing religious leaders. In Islam, the Mufti is appointed by the President, not elected or chosen by the Muslim community.
