In 1994, in response to criticisms of the book made by Deputy Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, Chee wrote a letter to The Straits Times. The PAP’s Second Organising Secretary, Matthias Yao, then wrote to the newspaper to reply to Chee’s comments.

At Yao’s request, Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong agreed to separate Yao’s MacPherson ward from the rest of Marine Parade GRC at the next general election so that he could take up Chee’s challenge.
