[tuxguy]

If Lawrence Wong lose Marsiling-Yew Tee can he still be PM?

Don't dream, sinkies won't do such drastic thing

 

[fulaien]

Agree. Singaporeans won’t dare vote the PM out. If DPM, they still might consider voting him out as we saw from the low vote share win by HSK at EC GRC in last GE

 

[Atilas]

His past wayang at Aljunied has finally been rewarded.

 

[Mr.Chibaboom]

Victor is useless. If they let him into amk grc through backdoor it’ll only make the whole thunder party lineup in amk grc is a total laughing stock despite they have pinky in there.

It doesn’t make pinky look good either.

Normally if these people stick around for a considerable amount of time ie 2 terms, eventually they will get “rewarded”. Desmond Choo eventually also sent to Tampines after sticking around at Hougang for 2 terms. If 2 terms and they don’t get anything, its a sign that they should just quit as they will have no future within PAP

Yes.

Hougang...
Heng Chee How. GE1997 debut. At Jalan Besar from 2001 till today.
Eric Low. GE2001 & 2006. Didnt run in GE2011.
Desmond Choo. GE2011 & by-election 2012. At Tampines from 2015 till today.
Lee Hong Chuang. GE2015 & 2020. Now at Bishan-TPY.

Potong Pasir...
Mah Bow Tan. GE1984 debut. At Tampines from 1988 at all way till retirement.
Kenneth Chen. GE1988 debut. At Hong Kah for 1991 and 1997, and retired in 2001.
Andy Gan. GE1991 & 1997. Went to Marine Parade in 2001 for 1 term and retired in 2006.
Sitoh Yih Pin. Since GE2001. Lost twice, tiagong made special request to stay on and fight at PP. Won against CST wife in 2011 and MP there ever since.

The late “Comrade” Eric Low lor … y’know … the origin of the word “Slum” in EDMW … they put him against LTK in Hougang all the way until GE2011 changed to CBT Choo’s nephew. They never parachuted him elsewhere, just discarded.

Tanjong Pagar GRC Analysis (13 April 2025)
History
GE2011: PAP Walkover
GE2015: PAP 78% SingFirst 22%. PAP overperformed nat'l average by 9%.
GE2020: PAP 63% PSP 37%. PAP overperformed nat'l average by 2%.
Incumbents
Team leaders: Chan Chun Sing, Indranee Rajah
Deputies: Alvin Tan, Joan Pereira, Rachel Ong, Eric Chua
Constituency Redrawing + PAP
Essentially, the Queenstown ward (represented by Eric Chua) was carved out of Tanjong Pagar GRC. It is likely that Eric Chua will run for the new Queenstown SMC. To maintain Tanjong Pagar as a 5 member GRC, the Telok Blangah ward was carved out from West Coast GRC and moved into Tanjong Pagar GRC. This means that if all MPs run for re-election, the team will be as such:
Chan Chun Sing, Indranee Rajah, Alvin Tan, Joan Pereira, Rachel Ong
Opposition
PSP: The PSP have significantly decreased their operations in Tanjong Pagar GRC, and there is a very low chance that they contest Tanjong Pagar GRC again. The party did relatively poorly in Tanjong Pagar (second worst result behind Pioneer SMC, where they had a three cornered race), hence it is expected that they would pull out. Candidates such as Wendy Low are currently doing groundwork in Chua Chu Kang GRC instead.
RDU: Following the announcement of the RDU's intention to contest Holland-Bukit Timah GRC, the party essentially withdrew from Tanjong Pagar GRC (as well as Radin Mas SMC). This is in line with the party's commitment against three-cornered fights. It is highly unlikely the party will contest in Tanjong Pagar GRC.
PAR: The PAR also has done groundwork in Tanjong Pagar since its formation. Weeks ago, party leader Lim Tean asked other opposition parties to "stay away" from Tanjong Pagar. As for candidates, it is highly possible that Lim Tean leads a PAR team in Tanjong Pagar; other potential candidates include Han Hui Hui, as well as DPP secretary-general Mohamad Hamim bin Aliyas.
Conclusion and Projection
It is most likely that Tanjong Pagar GRC goes for a straight fight between PAP and PAR. This projection predicts that the PAR will underperform the national average by 7 points in Tanjong Pagar (i.e. if PAP wins 60% nationally, they will win 67% in Tanjong Pagar).

[Heriophant]

If Lawrence Wong lose Marsiling-Yew Tee can he still be PM?
