the mid 1950s, Potong Pasir was one of the most important vegetable growing areas in Singapore. The land here had been cultivated since 1830s. The farmers there were almost all Cantonese and they used traditional methods with great success
and there is a big pond that was reclaimed.
In the 2006 General Elections, the PAP promised extensive upgrading for Potong Pasir estate if Sitoh Yi Pin got elected as MP for the seat of Potong Pasir. Despite that, Chiam won for the 6th consecutive term by a larger margin compared to the 2001 General Election....

PAP destroyed all the natural scenic places in Singapore and created a high rise concrete monster.

Mrs Chiam has known many residents and the grassroot leaders in Potong Pasir. It is also rumoured that Mr Chiam's daughter is another possible candidate.
I believe the residents in Potong Pasir will continue their strong support for Mrs Chiam if she comes forward to be elected in the coming election.
How true is your piece of news? What I know of is the person is a guy.

3 reasons why Chiam is aiming at Toa Payoh - Bishan GRC:
1. The GRC is just next door to his Potong Pasir ward.
2. Voters in the GRC no chance to vote due to walkover in past elections.
3. Fight with Wong Kan Seng over the Mas Selamat issue.

That is a big GRC, covers Bishan. I have a friend staying in Bishan told me that most people in Bishan don't like wks. Once when he was in bishan somebody planted a fake bomb to scare him. hahahah.
There were some disagreement over the Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC with WP claiming to do the ground work there.
He could go next ajoining Jalan Besar GRC which was contested by SDA in the last election.
any update?? who going where?

They will not release info so fast
Don't think there will be any update unless the election in near.

Even if opps want to release they gotta know the official date for election. It is not advisable opps release info now as PAP as chao kuan type will base on their update to tailor their agenda and attack on opps

No parties will like to reveal anything until the appropriate time. Election is much a strategy game.
I curious to know what is up their sleeves (the chao kuan gang) in the next election.

LHL said that there will be smaller GRCs and more SMCs. Possible major reshuffles in electoral boundaries.
