On June 27 last year, Lianhe Zaobao correspondent Nam Yunzhou, 31, and chief videographer Lim Seong Teik, 55, were the only journalists at the People's Action Party headquarters in Bedok when newly introduced candidate Ivan Lim announced he was withdrawing from contesting the July 10 General Election.
Mr Lim pulled out just days before Nomination Day, after allegations about his past conduct emerged online.
