Opposition politician Nicole Seah has left the National Solidarity Party, which she contested under during the 2011 General Elections.
Her departure was confirmed by NSP’s secretary-general Jeannette Chong-Aruldoss, as reported in Yahoo Singapore.
Ms Seah was formerly the second assistant secretary-general for NSP.
“We thank her for all the contributions she has made during her time with us, and we are very appreciative of all her efforts… but we respect her decision, which I’m sure she has considered and not made lightly,” Ms Chong-Aruldoss was quoted as saying.
Ms Chong-Aruldoss also indicated that there was no friction between Ms Seah and the party’s leadership that could have led to her departure.
Ms Seah has been less active with the party, and has also recently moved to Thailand earlier this year for work.
She has maintained on her social media postings that she remains active in grassroots activities in Singapore and has continued to keep in contact with her volunteers.
Ms Seah shot to fame in the 2011 General Elections due to her age and her performance, and has been drawn in parallel with the People’s Action Party’s Ms Tin Pei Ling.
She has indicated that the public life has taken its toll on her, and had expressed a wish to keep things simple in one of reflective her Facebook postings.
It is not known if Ms Seah will continue in politics with another party.

男子偷组屋外电眼却全程被录影,警方介入调查

一名男子順手牽羊将组屋单位内的电眼偷走,结果却被全程拍下,目前警方已介入调查。 近日,一名网友Cheryl Tan 于tech360.tv网页内分享自身发生电眼被偷的故事。网友表示在过去几年中,她和她的家人都发现,屋外迷你花园总有东西不见,例如植物、或者园艺工具。虽然报警处理,但没有证据证明而难以得知宵小身份。 于是她便买了电眼,安装在房屋外的迷你花园中,目的是为了能够抓到小偷。但因为不想要破坏墙壁结构,于是动用了巧妙心思将电眼安装在大门上。 而恰巧的是,该电眼是可以透过相对的应用程式(App)查看状况,但据网友表示,大多数的录像都是家人之间的走动,因此也没有太在意其录像。 岂料,网友在某天早晨离开前发现电眼电池量不足,于是贴了纸条,待回家充电,却在也等不到任何充电机会。当她回家后,发现到电眼已不见,本以为是弟妹开玩笑,所以立即打开App查看,结果却发现电眼刚好捕获宵小作案的最后片段。 从拍摄到的视频中可见,一名男子在她离开的半小时后,便出现在家门外,而且盯上了屋主的电眼。他似乎在琢磨电眼的位置及如何取出,再敲门确认家中无人后,便随之盗取电眼,然后将其切断电源。 视频最后片段显示宵小成功取下电眼,从楼梯离开现场: 不过电眼是无线装置,画面一直衔接着WiFi网络,因此也将偷电眼的过程拍摄下来。事主较后报警处理。 该起事件发生于9月4日早上约10时左右,地点是后港的一座组屋单位外。警方受询证实接到报案,案件在调查中。 网友表示,目前正在静待警方侦办失窃案,对此也保持相对乐观的心态,相信透过两架电眼的拍摄,能够将小偷逮捕归案。…
