The Singapore Democratic Party (SDP) steered clear of the National Kidney Foundation (NKF) saga at its first rally last night, focusing its fire instead on cost-of-living issues and ministerial pay.

It also used the rally at Woodlands Stadium to sell photocopies of a new edition of its party newsletter, The New Democrat, which did not contain articles on the NKF, over which Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew have sued the SDP for defamation."
