Think the change of address was allowed in the first place. And it make sense since the person spend most of the time there. More likely to contact the person at that address than anywhere else.

But now think embarrass by the solo highlight, want to do something about it. Seems like not sincere.

If voter don't vote. Hoe ?

 

[Miss.Molly]

He is the sole voter in the polling district only.

The SMC is not only this polling district only.

Plus how is this gerrymandering?
TS needs to consult dictionary.

 

[drkcynic]

Not the first time addresses are mis-used. There are instances of random people changing their addresses to other peoples address to advance their own agendas.

AsiaOne managed to track the single registered voter Yeo down to the JTC-managed Tampines Industrial Park A, which is just a five-minute drive away from the new BTO projects.

Speaking to AsiaOne, a very surprised Yeo shared that he had changed his residential address located in central Singapore to this industrial unit in Tampines.

He took over the 50-year-old family business from his elderly father after it was relocated from the northern part of Singapore to Tampines more than 20 years ago.

The 53-year-old told AsiaOne that as the sole proprietor, he often spends long hours at work every day, except for Sundays.

"It was for the convenience to run this business," explained Yeo, adding that he doesn't live in this unit.

"An individual's declared place of residence should be based on his physical address.

ICA better investigate thoroughly.

And to begin with, why is an industrial unit's address being permitted to be used to register as one's residential dwelling?

TS thought he just learnt/understood a new word ... hence his haste to exhibit his knowledge.

 

[yokine3a]

[wwenze]

Lololololololol

So is real la

Yesterday 154 newspaper still accuse the guy of faking address

Welcome to Singapore, guilty until proven innocent

 

[CaiPuDan]

[tshace]

Again, it's the voters' fault...
Common sense: ELD must be the one to be investigated !!!

 

[AngelRomeo]

Remember the polling district in Tampines Changkat SMC with only one registered voter?
The case is now being investigated by the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA).
ICA told Mothership that individuals in Singapore should declare their address based on where they are physically residing, and it is "not operationally tenable" for it to verify every person's declared place of residence, or check with premise owners if they disallow people to reside in their commercial or industrial buildings.
"ICA is investigating the case of the solo voter and is unable to provide further details at this juncture," ICA added.
"Under the NRA, those who have failed to report a change of address or falsely declared their residential address may be fined up to S$5,000, or jailed for up to five years, or both."

Background​

The odd statistic first drew readers' attention when it was mentioned in page 13 of the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee's Mar. 11 report.

Despite being about 14 football fields large, the district — around Tampines Street 92, 94, 95, and 96 — doesn't appear to be much of a residential area.
A quick check by Mothership revealed that the area is where a number of upcoming BTO projects are located.
Apart from that, there's also a number of industrial buildings as well as a commercial hostel.
Mothership understands that given that there is only one voter in the district, the person would be assigned to a polling station in an adjacent polling district.

So how did this happen?​

According to AsiaOne, the voter reportedly is a 53-year-old man, who gave his surname as Yeo.
The man said he is the sole proprietor of a business that is based in an industrial unit in Tampines.
While he does not live in the unit, he spends long hours at work six days out of seven.
"It was for the convenience to run this business," he explained.
Informed that he was the only listed voter in the polling district, Yeo expressed disbelief.
"Impossible. This is such a huge area with many new flats," he said.
