"Barisan Sosialis, a now defunct political party, was formed in 1961 by left-wing members of the People's Action Party (PAP), who were expelled from the Party. It became the main opposition party in self-governing Singapore. However, following Singapore's independence it boycotted Parliament. Nevertheless, it returned to contest the 1972 and subsequent elections. It failed to win any seats in the Parliamentary elections and was dissolved in 1988. Prominent members of the party included Dr Lee Siew Choh, Lim Chin Siong and Chia Thye Poh."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
