File photo – DPP walkabout at Toa Payoh Hub

The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) conducted a walkabout this morning at Tanjong Pagar GRC.

A 10-man team of Central Executive Committee members led by Party Chairman Mohd Hamim bin Aliyas, together with volunteers, walked the ground greeting residents and handing out flyers introducing the Party.

They were warmly welcomed by many local residents who have not had a chance to vote in past elections due to walkovers.

The DPP had just conducted a walkabout in Bishan last month, and will be doing walkabouts in Toa Payoh, Commonwealth, Thomson, Holland Village and Potong Pasir in the coming months.

DPP has expressed their intention to focus their efforts on Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC, Tanjong Pagar GRC, Potong Pasir SMC and Hong Kar North SMC in the coming few years, to walk the ground on monthly basis, and build up its branding, visibility and awareness.

Lim Tean demands Singapore Land Authority to account for discrepancy in ministers’ bungalow rentals and recent bungalow bid

Lim Tean, leader of the People’s Voice party, has demanded clarity from the Singapore Land Authority regarding the perceived disparity between ministers’ bungalow rental rates and recent bids for similar Black & White Bungalows. Both ministers are tenants in larger, state-owned colonial bungalows, for which they reportedly pay $26,500 and $20,000 per month, respectively. In a statement, Mr Lim called on the SLA to justify the discrepancy, saying, “The SLA has a lot of explaining to do to the Singapore public on why Shanmugam and Vivian are paying such low rentals on significantly bigger properties, when others are prepared to pay up to $70,000 for a smaller property.”
