Answer
Yes, Tony Tan contested the presidential election as an independent candidate. This was because he was not supported by any political party and he did not want to be affiliated with any political party. He wanted to run as an independent candidate so that he would be able to make decisions based on what he believed was best for Singapore, and not be influenced by any political party.
