What i like about Harpreet is despite being a Senior Counsel, he is able to use simple easy to understand words to get his message across unlike some PAP people, keep using big big words to blur things.
Think in general if work from ground up will know. That is one mark of a good leadership. The ability to dumb down message and instruction into few simple words that most, if not all can understand, regardless of their education and background.

Something which think many of the incumbent lacking. No matter how humble they say they are. When they speak, the heavy use of technical jargons and ambiguous meaning to words, serve more to confuse people.

They are speaking elite talk. It reflects how they don't trust the people to know what's right, only they know best. Thus, doesn't matter as much people get it or not. Just take it or leave it.

Amy Khor not running in GE2025: Gan Kim Yong​


The People’s Action Party (PAP) unveiled its candidates for Chua Chu Kang GRC and Bukit Gombak SMC on Apr. 14, 2025.

For Chua Chu Kang GRC, PAP will field Deputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong, Zhulkarnain Abdul Rahim, Choo Pei Ling and ex-civil servant Jeffrey Siow, a new face.

On a semi-related note, Hong Kah North was dissolved and incorporated into neighbouring Jurong East-Bukit Batok GRC and Chua Chu Kang GRC, according to the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee report.

This prompted a question after the press conference to DPM Gan about the future of Amy Khor, the MP for Hong Kah North, and where she would be heading.

Gan replied that Khor was stepping down due to personal reasons, and would not contest GE2025.

He also expressed his thanks to Khor for her efforts in Hong Kah North over the years.

Khor has been in Hong Kah North for 24 years
she will become a Major....no stress still amongst a million dollar pay.

Singapore is like a dynasty. Friends and families of ministers can parachute in and get appointments. Then, the princes and descendants of the royal blood are exiled or hidden to safeguard themselves.


Not saying the above is facts but having resemblance.


By the way, what's the Chinese name of the new face?
yea this totally does not happen everywhere else in the world

As individual it's very hard to manage a SMC. How you going to manage a TC? Remembered last time even WP as a quite big party also kena so jialat by managing the AHTC? The resources required don't think individual is able to handle that? Just my thought.

IMO the only "meaningful" thing they do is to provide suicide squads to keep the incumbent semi-busy during GE.

I think we have so any minor oppies not because we have so many diverse views but because each one is headed by a big ego character who cannot play 2nd fiddle and think too highly of themselves.

In the grand scheme of things, these minor oppies are probably a net negative because they continue to fuel the stereotype of oppies being clowns.
To help PAP wins. They are appearing every 5 years just to get attention. Please, just let WP, PSP and SDP do their jobs.
