Mr Kwek, the People's Action Party's candidate for Kebun Baru SMC, added that while the MPs may sometimes "agree to disagree" with the government on certain ideas, they will continue to advocate for those ideas over time.

PAR one cannot make it. The party fails to attract decent candidates, let alone good ones.

【GE2025】人民党李健铨将借助詹时中光环 争取波东巴西老居民支持​

波东巴西区新加坡人民党候选人李健铨,将借助反对党元老詹时中的政治魅力,唤起区内老居民对人民党的支持。

上届大选与人民党秘书长谢镜丰组队在碧山—大巴窑集选区参选的李健铨(45岁,自雇人士),本届大选转战波东巴西单选区。他将对决人民行动党的杨陞才(46岁),以及来自人民联盟的人民之声党秘书长林鼎(60岁)。三名候选人都是首次参选波东巴西区。

李健铨星期五(4月25日)下午1时许走访波东巴西组屋区,在第146座组屋的咖啡店接受媒体采访。

“波东巴西的老居民很多还记得詹时中先生,但可能没什么人知道谁是李健铨。我会积极向居民自我介绍,让他们知道我是代表詹时中的人民党参选的候选人。希望可以得到他们的支持和信任。”

2006年,当詹时中还是波东巴西区议员,李健铨便参与人民党的竞选志工活动,同年加入人民党,并在波东巴西区走动至今。他曾是詹时中和夫人罗文丽在波东巴西参选的竞选代理。

2020年大选,李健铨虽然在碧山—大巴窑集选区参选,但一直没有停止在波东巴西的基层活动。

针对区内有不同社群的新老居民,他说:“我会尽力走访波东巴西的旧组屋区,和年长居民面对面接触;而比达达利的居民多数是惯用社交媒体的年轻一代,我会借助社媒自我介绍和传达我的政治方案。”

相对于其他两名候选人,李健铨认为自己更有竞选优势。杨陞才自2013年起在波东巴西基层担任义工,2016年也在此创办社区法律诊所,但李健铨自称在波东巴西旧区活动了近20年,詹时中的年长支持者们应该对他更熟悉。

“自提名日后,我这两天开始从早到晚拜访波东巴西的居民,已经沿家挨户走访10多座组屋,不过至今没有遇过林鼎。”

他说:“居民必须自己衡量谁是更适合服务他们的代表。”

【GE2025】民主联盟张挂非一般竞选海报 用漫画反映社会问题​

竞选海报用漫画,不用候选人头像呈现,新加坡民主联盟白沙—樟宜竞选团队希望通过插画反映社会议题和人民心声。

角逐白沙—樟宜集选区的民主联盟团队星期五(4月25日)在选区内张挂的竞选海报格外引人注目。和一般印有候选人头像的海报不同,该党的海报通过漫画反映一些民生议题。不同的海报呈现的画面包括白发驼背的老人清理小贩中心的碗碟、收集废弃的纸壳等;或是穿衬衫打领带的上班族不堪房屋、医疗等生活开销重压的漫画描绘。

民主联盟主席林睦荃与另一名白沙—樟宜集选区候选人谢昀恺于星期五午餐时分,在巴西立六道第443座组屋楼下的咖啡店走访居民。他接受《联合早报》访问时说:“作为一个以民为本的政党,我们的首要职责就是反映人民的心声。插画系列的竞选海报有多个版本,重点聚焦在‘有尊严的养老’与‘夹心层的经济压力’两个议题。”

对于是否担心选民认不出候选人,林睦荃回应:“我们今天下午就会陆续张贴印有候选人头像的海报。分阶段投放,也是我们整体竞选策略的一部分。”

除了“海报策略”,林睦荃也透露,民主联盟竞选团队这两天或将更换制服颜色,从亮绿色换成蓝色。他解释道:“绿色象征自然,新加坡一直是一座与自然共存的城市,但近年来,随着城市发展,许多绿地被清除;而蓝色则代表我们是‘true blue’(地道的)新加坡人。”

他指出,新加坡应欢迎高素质的外来人才,但也必须有节制。他不担心蓝色制服与工人党“撞色”,认为“只要是为新加坡人挺身而出,大家都可以穿蓝色”。

谈及总理公署部长兼财政部及国家发展部第二部长英兰妮从丹戎巴葛集选区转战白沙—樟宜,林睦荃说:“这是人民行动党的策略,我不便评论。”不过他强调,自己之所以有信心参选,是因为多年深耕基层、服务选民,例如在伊莱雅路(Elias Rd)第614座组屋楼下长期派发免费晚餐,让年长居民在减轻生活负担的同时,也能有机会与邻里交流互动。
