Tan and Cheng’s resignations were “necessary, to maintain the high standards of propriety and personal conduct which the PAP has upheld all these years”, says Lee.
Speaker of Parliament Tan Chuan-Jin and Member of Parliament Cheng Li Hui have resigned from both the parliament and the People’s Action Party.
According to a statement by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong issued on July 17, Lee accepted the resignations of both members.
