Singapore Democratic Alliance (SDA) secretary-general Desmond Lim is set to do battle in a multi-cornered fight in Punggol East again.

The 44-year-old was unveiled as his party candidate in a press release issued at 1am on Tuesday morning.

In the statement, the alliance - made up of the Singapore Malay National Organisation (PKMS) and the Singapore Justice Party - said the decision to field Mr Lim in the upcoming by-election, "comes with a full on approach driven by dedication and determination".

SDA said it also considered fielding motivational speaker Harminder Pal Singh, who was part of the SDA team that contested Pasir-Ris Punggol GRC in the 2011 General Election.
