possible SDP chief Chee Soon Juan vs People’s Action Party MP Poh Li San

Sembawang West Single Member Constituency
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sembawang_West_Single_Member_Constituency

Electorate	24,153

Sembawang West SMC was established for the 2025 general election by carving out Sembawang West ward of the Sembawang GRC, in order to reduce the number of voters in the GRC.
Chief of the Singapore Democratic Party Dr. Chee Soon Juan has announced his intention to stand for election in this constituency after the seat where he previously contested, Bukit Batok SMC was absorbed into Jurong GRC in what some argue is a form of gerrymandering by the ruling government.

Think its not what they can do, but what they can stop, provided they have enough numbers, but usually they don't. Only incumbent can do something. So, if want something done or not, logically is can only lament incumbent, rather than opposition. Its misleading to always point at opposition, cause they are not in power to do anything much.

He should contest west side. North side mostly Malaysian new citizens

 

[Cyber_Ghost]

He only closed one outlet. He still has the other that’s why he should focus on it before it closed down as well.

Yes, they do, even house visits, there will be PA volunteers advance a few floors ahead of the entourage, knock on your door ask if you interested to blah blah shake hand or talk.
You can say you not interested, and keep the door shut one, they won't find you.

Usually i don't even answer the door, just pretend I not inside.

curious! let's say you tell them you keen, then do they screen your questions first?

 

[spunkbrat]

Actually find this whole thing such a non-issue, just a bit of a joke, dunno why so hung up on this

 

[elephantscannotfly]

I doubt they have time to screen questions.
Since they are like a floor away already, and each floor only has like 5 units.
Shake hand say hello only, cannot answer just say "we check for you do our best." they get back to you is another thing right?

And just to prove house visits were done, they will put a few selected mugshots at the lift landing notice board.
Need to have some cultural diversity, otherwise wait kena only these people get selected to have their mugshots.
C'mon, any working class citizen will know how this works lol.

Trying to convince myself to accept tong tong chiang's clarifications
