A queue formed at One Punggol Hawker Centre as residents waited to meet WP newcomers Alexis Dang and Jackson Au.
“We’re so happy you’re here,” a resident told Ms Dang. “We’re so happy to be here,” she replied, thanking him for his support.
Ms Dang and Mr Au were seen speaking to families and taking photos with residents.
“Can we have a picture with you?” asked a seven-year-old girl. Ms Dang gladly agreed.
The girl’s mother, Ms Yap, in her 30s, said she has been “hoping for a strong opposition in Punggol for quite some time now”. Her family has lived in the area for 10 years.
A resident offered cold drinks to the WP candidates. “All the best and take care of yourselves,” he told them.
Meanwhile, PAP new faces in Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC - Ms Elysa Chen and Mr Cai Yinzhou - were on a walkabout at Block 92 Toa Payoh Lorong 4 and at the market in Lorong 7.
In Tampines GRC, Mr Zee Phay, who is part of the NSP team contesting the five-member constituency, was seen engaging residents during a walkabout at Tampines Mart.
