On WP front, there is talk that it could field senior counsel Harpreet Singh Nehal – regarded a “star catch” by WP party – in East Coast GRC?. “ But he, don’t want to be parachuted anywhere safe,” Mr Harpreet Singh had said in an interview on April 11.

Note: On May 3. He' is suddenly was parachuted in newest Punggol GRC. Where the PAP party is waiting for him. So WP boss is sweating is out. Bigeyes Rotfl kanna sa-more ah, interest show coming. (Akan Datang soon).

Source: The Straits Times
 
Author: Not specified
 
Publication Date: April 24, 2025
 
Article Summary:
 
Theme: This article reports on Deputy Prime Minister (DPM) Gan Kim Yong's unexpected move to Punggol Group Representation Constituency (GRC) for the upcoming General Election (GE2025). The article explores the public reaction, particularly the concerns raised on Reddit about the move's potential implications for the PAP and voters.
 
Core Points:
 
- DPM Gan's move to Punggol: DPM Gan, previously the anchor for Chua Chu Kang GRC, was fielded in Punggol GRC instead. This caused confusion and speculation among Singaporeans, as it was a last-minute change from his previously announced constituency.
 
- Concerns about the PAP's strategy: A Redditor questioned if the PAP was "that desperate" to field a DPM in a potentially contested GRC or if Gan was "disposable". They drew parallels with the 2011 election, where former Foreign Minister George Yeo was fielded in Aljunied GRC and lost to the Workers' Party (WP), subsequently losing his Cabinet position.
 
- Voters' tough choices: The Redditor argued that Punggol residents now face a choice between potentially increasing opposition representation in Parliament or risking the loss of a DPM.
 
- DPM Gan's response: DPM Gan clarified that the decision to move to Punggol was made carefully and with his full support. He thanked Chua Chu Kang residents for their support and assured them they are "in good hands" under Dr Tan See Leng. He expressed his commitment to serving Punggol residents wholeheartedly.
 
- PM Wong's explanation: PM Lawrence Wong stated that the PAP wanted a stronger distribution of senior leaders across constituencies, with Punggol requiring a "senior office-holder of similar stature" to replace Senior Minister Teo Chee Hean, who is stepping down.
 
Phenomenon:
 
- Last-minute candidate switch: The article highlights the case of DPM Gan's unexpected move to Punggol GRC.
 
- Political strategy: The article discusses concerns about the PAP's strategy in fielding senior leaders in potentially contested constituencies, drawing comparisons to the 2011 election.
 
- Voters' choices: The article emphasizes the dilemma faced by voters in potentially contested GRCs, particularly in Punggol, where they must decide between potentially supporting opposition representation and risking the loss of a senior government leader.

Holiday today for workers. A Happy day to all

Bukit Panjang MP Liang Eng Hwa is looking forward to what he says would be his “best term” in the area, as he acknowledged surprise at the significant swing in vote share in the May 3 General Election.

The backbencher’s 61.41 per cent victory was an improvement of over seven percentage points from the result in the nail-biting race in 2020 with the same rival, Singapore Democratic Party’s chairman Paul Tambyah.

That showdown, where Mr Liang narrowly beat Dr Tambyah with only 53.73 per cent of votes, was the closest contest among all single-member constituencies in that election
