Before JB Jeyaretnam’s recent press conference, there was much speculation in opposition circles about his political future. It was widely rumored that the veteran politician was ready to throw in the towel.
At the age of 81, he has contested eight elections and has established himself as one of Singapore’s most recognisable opposition leaders. It would have been an opportune time to call it quits.
