We are a voice together. And what I have said to the people was what I told the Chief Minister,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Sim said he had not wanted to say one thing to the people and another thing to the CM. \u201cAs I say before SUPP is no more a towkay party and we do not say thing based on towkay want. We go by the wishes of the people,\u201d\u00a0 he stressed.<\/p>\n<p>I believed in honesty and credibility of the party. There is, he added, no need for me to twist my words to suit the audience. We must be honest to the people so that we can earn their trust and confidence,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>It was reported in a Chinese paper that the Prime Minister and the Chief Minister has agreed to allow both SUPP and UPP to contest without using the Barisan Nasional logo like what was done in SNAP and PBDS before.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Sim said it was a different scenario all together and that SUPP is a component party of the BN so there is no reason why they could not use the BN logo.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn BN, we abide by the principals applied. And that was why we are strong and united as we go by those principals,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>SUPP will be contesting in 19 seats, plus new seats in the coming state election.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.suppnewsportal.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/deadline-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-8634\" alt=\"deadline (1)\" src=\"http:\/\/www.suppnewsportal.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/deadline-1-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.suppnewsportal.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/deadline-1-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.suppnewsportal.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/deadline-1-1024x682.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8635\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8635\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.suppnewsportal.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/deadline-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8635\" alt=\"Dr. Sim witnessing on the handover of the Sg Apong community hall yesterday.
