[Whimsica]

The article is poorly written.

Nothing out of the norm (and in fact it is a good practice) for political parties to continuously inject fresh blood.

And I think they got it wrong with LPM.

He is definitely not new and in fact was already a political office holder prior to the last GE.

GE2025: Maximum spending limit in election campaign raised to $5 per voter

This change is to account for inflation, the Elections Department said on March 27.ST PHOTO: KUA CHEE SIONG

SINGAPORE - Candidates in the upcoming general election can spend a maximum of $5 for each registered voter, up from $4 previously.

This change is to account for inflation, the Elections Department (ELD) said on March 27. The last time the limit was revised was in 2015, said ELD.

Spending more than the maximum amount is against the law, the department added.

ELD said the President has also designated the GRCs where at least one of the candidates standing for election must be a person belonging to either the Malay community, or Indian or other minority communities.

The GRCs where at least one of the candidates in each group must be a person belonging to the Malay community are: Aljunied; Bishan-Toa Payoh; Chua Chu Kang; East Coast; Jalan Besar; Marine Parade-Braddell Heights; Marsiling-Yew Tee; Pasir Ris-Changi; Sembawang; Sengkang; and Tampines.

GRCs where at least one of the candidates in each group must be a person belonging to the Indian or other minority communities are: Ang Mo Kio; Holland-Bukit Timah; Jurong East-Bukit Batok; Nee Soon; Punggol; Tanjong Pagar; and West Coast-Jurong West.
