Following the by-election,
Chee Soon Juan had received acclaim in public interest towards their supporters of
Singapore Democratic Party, but on the following year, a party dispute ensued between him and
Chiam See Tong; Chiam was expelled from the party's CEC but won a lawsuit to retain his
Potong Pasir SMC seat and his position on procedure grounds, which lead to the formation of
Singapore People's Party (SPP) in 1994; Chiam also later formed the
Singapore Democratic Alliance (SDA) in 2001 along with the two teams who also contested the by-election: the
National Solidarity Party (NSP) and
Singapore Justice Party (SJP), as well as
Singapore Malay National Organisation (PKMS). However, the SDA was left with PKMS and SJP after the NSP later left the alliance in 2007, followed by SPP in 2010. In SDP, Chee then became the party's Secretary-General till this day, though the party were unsuccessful on winning seats in subsequent attempts, including
MacPherson SMC where he publicly challenged
Matthias Yao in the
next election. The PAP's team was re-sworn in Parliament a month later on 18 January 1993; Goh would continue to hold his premiership until 2004 and remained as MP for Marine Parade until his retirement in 2020. The last MP in the team to retire is
Teo Chee Hean, who would retire from politics in 2025.
Subsequent elections Marine Parade's next electoral contest after the by-election would be in
2011, 19 years later, where the
National Solidarity Party challenged there. Similarly, the next by-election where SDP would be involved with was in
2016, with Chee facing against
Murali Pillai in the seat of
Bukit Batok SMC. The WP would eventually contest Marine Parade GRC in
2015, 23 years later, which was led by former
Non-constituency Member of Parliament Yee Jenn Jong, who previously contested
Joo Chiat SMC in 2011, which was redrawn back into Marine Parade GRC in that election. However, they did not contest in the
2025 election citing limitation of resources and the
extensive boundary changes of the constituency (among which Joo Chiat was redrawn into
East Coast GRC), which resulted in Marine Parade GRC, now
Marine Parade-Braddell Heights GRC, to become
uncontested for the first time since 2006. A multi-cornered contest inside a Group Representation Constituency would not occur again until 28 years later in the
2020 election, where a three-way race unfolded in
Pasir Ris-Punggol GRC between the PAP, whose team coincidentally included Teo, the SDA, and the new
Peoples Voice. A similar four-cornered contest in a Group Representation Constituency would occur again 33 years later in the 2025 election where PAP, WP, NSP and the new
People's Power Party (PPP) challenged
Tampines GRC, and just like the 1992 by-election and the
2013 Punggol East by-election (the other instance of a four-cornered by-election contest), the two smaller parties (NSP and PPP in this case) had also forfeited their election deposits. ==References==
