Mr Tan said SDP MPs would also protect jobs and "empower Singaporeans".
They would do this by "prioritising Singaporeans and reducing the influx of foreign PMETs (professionals, managers, executives and technicians) so as to ensure job security and wider opportunities".
A minimum wage law would be introduced so that "every Singaporean will earn a wage that reflects the true cost of living".
The party would also provide support to reduce mental health problems that are "due to overpopulation and the high cost of living", added Mr Tan.
He said that SDP offered "a clear and better alternative" to the PAP, and that "our vision isn't just about managing day-to-day struggles".
"We want a more compassionate Singapore where the government takes care of you, not exploits you. The SDP will see to that.
"We want a bold society which flourishes with creative ideas and innovation; a society that lifts everyone up, and one that truly feels like home.
"This isn't merely an election campaign – it's a movement for change, for a better tomorrow," said Mr Tan.
