GE2020: The People’s Action Party

GE2020: Voting for the first time and knowing next to nothing about the various political parties in Singapore? Get to know them and their new candidates in our General Election (GE) series.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE PARTY

  • The People’s Action Party (PAP) was established by founding prime minister Lee Kuan Yew and the first generation of leaders in 1954. It has ruled Singapore since 1959, when it became the self-governing state’s first fully elected Government

  • In the last General Election (GE) in 2015, the party contested all 16 Group Representation Constituencies (GRCs) and 13 Single Member Constituencies (SMCs), losing only Aljunied GRC and Hougang SMC to the opposition Workers’ Party. It got a 69.86 per cent vote share in GE2015

  • Before Parliament was dissolved for the coming GE, the party held 83 out of 89 seats

  • Mr Lee Hsien Loong, the PAP secretary-general who is also Prime Minister, has said that he will hand over the reins to the party before he turns 70, which means the coming GE could be his final one. He is now 68

  • First assistant secretary-general Heng Swee Keat, 59, is widely expected to succeed Mr Lee as PAP chief. 

 

NEW CANDIDATES 

Mr Desmond Tan Kok Ming, 50

Mr Tan stepped down as the head of the People’s Association (PA) on June 15, after a stint of three-and-a-half years. He led the association's ground operations as part of the whole-of-government Covid-19 response, PA said in announcing his departure. Before that, Mr Tan was a brigadier-general and his last appointment was Chief of Staff of the general staff in the army. He served in the 1st Battalion Singapore Infantry Regiment and was the Chief Guards Officer. He is married with three children, and has been active in Pasir Ris-Punggol GRC.

Mr Tan said that he joined politics to do his part “to shape a society that we truly want”. He also hopes to contribute to “preserve social mobility that is crucial in our growing society”.

“I want to do my part to ensure that every child, every youth in Singapore can continue to succeed in life.” 

Mr Edward Chia Bing Hui, 36

Mr Chia is the managing director and co-founder of lifestyle and entertainment group Timbre, founding Timbre @ the Substation, a live music bar, at the age of 21. He also now serves as the co-chair of a National Environment Agency work group on sustaining the hawker trade, and sits on the board of the Ngee Ann Polytechnic Council. Through the SG Youth Action Plan, which he co-chairs, he aims to work with the youth to chart a path for the country's future, and transform ideas into action for a better Singapore. He has been spotted with the incumbent Holland-Bukit Timah GRC Member of Parliament (MP) Liang Eng Hwa.

Mr Chia hopes to be the voice for small- and medium-sized enterprises, especially after the “big blow” Covid-19 has dealt them, he said. He also intends to champion mental health issues if elected.

“Specifically, I would like to upskill many of us in the community to be able to be effective first responders, to be good caregivers." 

Ms Nadia Ahmad Samdin, 30

Ms Nadia is an associate director at TSMP Law Corporation, a corporate law firm. She is a board member and head of youth at LBKM, also known as Prophet Muhammad’s Birthday Memorial Scholarship Fund Board, a charity for the Malay and Muslim community in Singapore. Ms Nadia was formerly a current affairs producer at CNA and has also served with the National Youth Council, the Singapore Council of Women’s Organisations and as a panel advisor to the Youth Courts.

She hopes to cut down on plastic pollution and to be “a voice for (her) generation” in pushing for “sustainable economic growth”.

“We value sustainability, and not just sustainability in the traditional sense, but also thinking about sustainable economic growth, that is equitable first and foremost, while preserving the environment and upholding the values of Singapore.”

Ms Hany Soh Hui Bin, 33

Ms Soh is a director at MSC Law Corporation, a litigation and dispute resolution law firm. She sits on the young lawyers’ committee, criminal legal aid scheme committee and community legal clinic committee of the Law Society of Singapore. Ms Soh is also a grassroots leader in Bukit Panjang SMC and has served on the Bukit Panjang Citizens’ Consultative Committee and Residents’ Committee.

She was formerly the chairman of the Young PAP Bukit Panjang branch and was elected to the PAP HQ executive committee in 2016. She hopes to be the voice of her residents in Parliament and was introduced by PAP vice-chairman Masagos Zulkifli as being active in sustainability initiatives in Bukit Panjang.

Ms Soh hopes to change how people can apply for Lasting Power of Attorney — which allows individuals to appoint another person to act on their behalf should they lose mental capacity — as it is now a “tedious” process. "It can be as easy as the Central Provident Fund nomination form, which is done online," she said. "I hope to streamline many procedures that, fundamentally, people who are physically disabled are unable to do."

Mr Don Wee Boon Hong, 43

Mr Wee is working in United Overseas Bank as a senior vice-president. He also sits on the Institute of Mental Health’s visitors’ board and works with the Ministry of Social and Family Development’s Office of Public Guardian on a pro-bono basis, his LinkedIn profile states. Mr Wee is a council member of the Institute of Singapore Chartered Accountants, and a member of its Continuing Professional Education Committee. Growing up in a rental flat, Mr Wee said that he has had an unconventional upbringing and “has been a beneficiary of Singapore's meritocratic system” and wants to help the less privileged.

He hopes to digitalise the ways less-privileged families can apply for social services.

“I hope that... politics (can be) an extension of my volunteerism, and a platform for me to raise (residents') concerns and needs to the policymakers.”

Mr Mohd Fahmi Aliman, 48

Mr Fahmi joined the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore (Muis) last year but left on March 24 this year. The former colonel was in the Singapore Armed Forces for 26 years and at one point, served as director of the Changi Regional Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Relief Coordination Centre. He is now with the National Trades Union Congress (NTUC). He grew up in a rental flat, and his parents had worked as a gas worker and a cleaner.  “I want to raise awareness for low-wage workers and for essential services workers, for them to continue to upskill themselves,” he said.

Mr Fahmi wants the progressive wage model to be applied to every service industry with low-wage and essential workers.

“We realise that there is no bonus, or little bonus, given to low-wage workers… I want to be the voice to fight and make sure low-wage workers are taken care of.” 

Mr Yip Hon Weng, 43

Mr Yip was until recently group chief of the Agency for Integrated Care’s Silver Generation Office, and was the advisor of care integration in the Ministry of Health. The career public servant of 17 years has served in the education, defence, health and national development ministries. He was previously the founding director of the Municipal Services Office, which works across various ministries and agencies to resolve municipal issues. A father of five children, he said that joining politics— like having a big family ⁠— comes with joys and rewards that “far outweigh the costs”.

Mr Yip said that the Government can do more to help seniors in terms of mental health support and raising awareness of resources available. He also intends to help them embrace digitalisation in a post-Covid-19 world.

“Entering politics will come at a cost to my personal life, but I believe this is the best opportunity to contribute and make Singapore into a place where my children and, one day, their children can be proud of.” 

Ms Ng Ling Ling, 48

Ms Ng stepped down from her position as the chief of future primary care and director of community engagement at the Ministry of Health's Office for Healthcare Transformation in March. She was also previously managing director of Community Chest and was named Her World’s Woman of the Year 2018.

She told the magazine then: “I was very sensitive to the brokenness I saw in the families in my immediate community due to drugs, gambling, abuse and other social problems.”

Ms Ng said during her introduction that she wants to support caregivers looking after elders and the young. With the Singapore population ageing rapidly, she hopes to advocate for more ways to empower seniors to understand their health, so that they can lead a longer, healthy life.

“For young families who have to look after older parents and young children, I empathise with the distress that they will face and I hope to find ways to support them in caregiving.” 

Dr Tan See Leng, 55

Dr Tan is the former chief executive officer of IHH Healthcare, a Malaysian–Singaporean private healthcare group. He was first involved in grassroots activities in the early 1990s when he was a general practitioner in Kembangan. Serving under former Foreign Affairs Minister George Yeo then, he was chairman of the Jalan Senang neighbourhood committee.

Emeritus Senior Minister Goh Chok Tong, on hearing that Dr Tan has retired, reached out to him to consider entering politics. Dr Tan said in an interview with CNA that Mr Goh's son is a former colleague.

Dr Tan is concerned about the rapidly ageing population in Singapore. “I hope to… build a sustainable infrastructure system, not just to support the older generation but to also build a caregiver support network to support the caregivers who actually take care of this older population.” 

Mr Zhulkarnain Abdul Rahim, 39

Mr Zhulkarnain is a partner at law firm Dentons Rodyk & Davidson LLP. He was at one time the youngest chairman of the Association of Muslim Professionals Singapore (AMP), a non-profit organisation serving the Muslim community. Inspired by the social impact that has been made on the Malay-Muslim community, he hopes to “drive the community forward”. He has been spotted volunteering in the Keat Hong division of Chua Chu Kang GRC. Mr Zhulkarnain is concerned about issues regarding social mobility and social cohesion. “We cannot let differing viewpoints and ideas divide us,” he said.

Describing this year’s election as crucial, he added: "We need to do something, be heard, and shape our social compact and social cohesion, not just for the next five years… but beyond.”

Mr Tan Kiat How, 43

Mr Tan recently stepped down as chief executive of the Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA). In 2017, he led the merger of the Infocomm Development Authority and Media Development Authority to form IMDA. Under his direction, IMDA built up Singapore’s connectivity infrastructure by rolling out the fourth telecommunications company and awarding spectrum for the deployment of fifth-generation mobile networks.

Mr Tan was previously deputy secretary for cyber and technology at the Ministry of Communications and Information, where he worked on Singapore's national cyber-security strategy. He has also worked at the Ministry of Finance and the Pioneer Generation Office.

He has been involved in several webinars earlier this month where he talked about programmes available to help businesses and workers go digital, alongside MPs from East Coast GRC. Mr Tan hopes to bridge the digital divide in the community and protect the young and vulnerable from online harm. He believes in building upon Singapore’s strong foundations to overcome challenges and “make this a better home for generations to come”.

“If I have the chance to serve as an MP, this is what I want to do — build strong local community networks complementing national efforts to upgrade the lives of residents in our community.”

Ms Yeo Wan Ling, 44

Ms Yeo is the chief executive officer of Caregiver Asia, a global company specialising in the business of home healthcare. Before starting the company, she spent over a decade at the Economic Development Board (EDB), where she was part of its global operations team, managing Singapore’s key foreign direct investment accounts and business owners of family-owned conglomerates in China, Hong Kong, South Korea, Taiwan and the United States.

She has been stationed in Chicago, Shanghai and Hong Kong to manage EDB’s operations in these regions. Ms Yeo, who is married, also serves as the vice-chairman of Punggol North Citizens’ Consultative Committee. She said that entering politics will grant her the opportunity to leverage her experience in the civil service and doing community work to enact policy changes on a larger platform.

“I want to be the in-community champion for caregiving programmes so that our community can take care of each other in a sustainable way.” 

Mr Alvin Tan Sheng Hui, 39

Mr Tan is the director and Asia-Pacific head of public policy and economics at professional social network LinkedIn. He worked previously at Facebook as its head of public policy, representing the social media company during the 2018 Select Committee hearings on tackling fake news. Then, he argued against the use of prescriptive legislation to deal with online falsehoods.

He has been a volunteer in Dr Lily Neo’s Kreta Ayer-Kim Seng ward for the past 15 years but has more recently been seen at Tanjong Pagar GRC Meet-the-People sessions for the Moulmein-Cairnhill division.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, he distributed meals and face masks to residents in Pek Kio. Mr Tan graduated from Harvard University with a master's degree in public policy and an economics degree from the University of Sydney.

“I want to use my skills and experience across the private, public and non-profit sectors to help Singaporeans become even more nimble, to prepare them for the future of work that has arrived much sooner than you and I expected.” 

Dr Wan Rizal Wan Zakariah, 42

Dr Wan Rizal is a Republic Polytechnic senior lecturer with a doctorate in Sports Science. He was a Normal Academic student who pursued higher education at Temasek Polytechnic, National Institute of Education and later, Nanyang Technological University (NTU). He graduated with a degree in physical education at the age of 31, and went on to pursue his doctorate.

Dr Wan Rizal has been volunteering for a decade and was the chairman of Al-Islah mosque in Punggol. He is now a committee member on the advisory panel for Mendaki, Ministry of Transport as well as the Ministry of Social and Family Development. He also served on the Citizens' Consultative Committees at both Pasir Ris East and Punggol East divisions.

He hopes to be the voice in Parliament that champions social mobility. “This is how we can allow people who have less, or did less well, to move up and prevent our society from being stratified. Singapore must continue to be a nation of opportunities for all, not for just the privileged few or the lucky ones, but for every Singaporean.” 

Mr Eric Chua Swee Leong, 41

Mr Chua was the director of the SGSecure Programme Office at the Ministry of Home Affairs and is a colonel in the Singapore Civil Defence Force. He was a commanding officer of the 3rd SCDF Division and has also been serving as honorary aide-de-camp to Singapore’s Presidents since 2007.

He is also the chairman of Cairnhill Community Club management committee and sits on the Land Transport Authority’s Active Mobility Advisory Panel. Mr Chua was also involved in youth entrepreneurship issues during his previous stint as chairman of the People's Association Youth Movement’s Central Youth Council. 

“If elected, one of the several areas I’ll like to focus on is to ensure that youth, especially those from humble family backgrounds, like I was, will continue to have a fair chance to succeed in life.” 

Mr Derrick Goh Soon Hee, 51

Mr Goh is managing director and head of group audit at DBS bank and was previously the head of its subsidiary, POSB. Before that, he worked at credit firm American Express for 11 years, spending time in London and New York.

Mr Goh said that his stint at POSB exposed him to volunteering efforts by grassroots and community leaders. He has championed access to banking for elders and the needy, and has been walking the ground in Nee Soon GRC for some years. He is also vice-chairman of the Gambas-Yishun Citizens' Consultative Committee.

Mr Goh said: “I want to play a part to improve the system, to hone the system. I know that Singapore is not perfect but having lived in all these international financial centres, I can say personally that Singapore is the best, and therefore I want to play a role.”

Ms Poh Li San, 45

Ms Poh is the vice-president of the Changi Airport Group. In October 2018, she joined the PAP Sembawang branch and is now the deputy chairman of the branch. Ms Poh first came to prominence as a female helicopter pilot in the Republic of Singapore Air Force.

She was later the first woman to be appointed full-time aide-de-camp to the late President SR Nathan. Ms Poh said in previous media reports that she hopes there will be more opportunities in leadership for women in the political arena “because it will be more powerful to work as a team of women leaders”.

“It is important to start nurturing our younger generation of women to set their ambitions high and far, and chase their passion so that they can excel in what they do and contribute to our society in many ways.” 

Mr Raymond Lye Hoong Yip, 54

Mr Lye is a managing partner at Union Law LLP, which he founded in 2014. Prior to private practice, he was a magistrate and deputy registrar of the State Courts. He also served as the chairman of the Ministry of Communications and Information’s programme advisory committee (English) and is now a resource panel member of the Government Parliamentary Committee on Defence and Foreign Affairs.

Mr Lye also chairs the Punggol East Citizens’ Consultative Committee and is a member of the executive committee of the Pasir Ris–Punggol Town Council. Mr Lye has been seen volunteering more recently in the newly formed Sengkang GRC.

He said that community work, where he gets to listen to residents in their homes, void decks of housing blocks and coffee shops, is most satisfying. “I have always tried my best to help because no government policy is foolproof. There are those who fall through the cracks.”

Emphasising the importance of a level playing field, he wants to ensure the attainability of meritocracy. “We leave no Singaporean behind,” he said.

Ms Gan Siow Huang, 46

Ms Gan was appointed deputy chief executive of the labour movement’s Employment and Employability Institute (e2i) in April. She was in the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) for more than 25 years where she became the country’s first woman brigadier-general in 2015.

Ms Gan is one of the first four women to receive the SAF Merit Scholarship in 1993. She graduated in economics with first-class honours from the London School of Economics and Political Science and holds a master’s degree in business administration from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

She has been volunteering with the Girl Guides Singapore for more than seven years and has been seen in walkabouts in the Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC. 

In her career in the SAF, Ms Gan was the commander of the largest formation in the air force and also involved in long-term planning, capability development, policy work, manpower, intelligence among other areas. “So I have gathered... several building blocks that I think are critical to any good organising entity and I would say the leadership experiences that I gained and also the lessons I learnt in taking care of people will help me to be a good politician."

Ms Rachel Ong Sin Yen, 47

Ms Ong is the chief executive of consultancy firm Rohei Corporation and founder of Trybe, a charity that runs the Singapore Boys Hostel and the Community Rehabilitation Centre.

After graduating from CHIJ St Joseph’s Convent secondary school, she did her post-secondary education at Columbia College in Canada before studying at Southern Illinois University. She received her master’s degree in business administration in a joint programme by Insead business school and Tsinghua University.

In her introduction, Ms Ong said that she hopes to see “the youth succeed in life”. “In order for us to help the youth succeed we first must learn to listen, to see, to hear, to understand and to care for the needs of the youth. Then we are empowered to continue to challenge them and support them, given the rights and the trust by them,” she said.

“What I’ve learnt about the journey with the youth is that there is no quick fix. It takes time. It takes a lot of patience, but it's worth every minute. Often it is believing in them more than they believe in themselves.”

Mr Sharael Taha, 39

Mr Sharael is vice-president (strategy and project management office) at Singapore Aero Engine Services as part of a secondment from British aerospace company Rolls Royce. He graduated with a master’s degree in business administration with distinction from the University of Oxford and an honours degree in mechanical engineering from the National University of Singapore.

Mr Sharael said that the transformation of the country “cannot be at the expense of others”, such as seniors, low wage workers and the less-abled.

“We have to make sure that they are part of this journey together to ensure that we leave no one behind. For youths, the world ahead may be daunting but don't worry… I want to continue to work together with you to ensure this equal opportunity for each and every youth regardless of race, language, religion, or economic standing. And every child in Singapore, can be the best that they can be,” he said.

Mr Alex Yeo Sheng Chye, 41

Mr Yeo is a director at law firm Niru & Co. He was formerly a foreign service officer at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He is an economics and political science graduate from the National University of Singapore and also holds a law degree from the University of Sydney. He received a master’s degree in public administration from the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy.

Starting out as a party volunteer in Potong Pasir, he took over Mr Murali Pillai in 2016 as the chairman of the PAP’s Paya Lebar branch within Aljunied GRC, after Mr Murali won in the Bukit Batok by-elections that year.

Since then, he has led a pro-bono legal and healthcare initiative for Paya Lebar residents. “We go the extra mile to listen and help with a personal touch because we want to build a community that not only lives, works and plays together, but cares for each other, together,” he said at the PAP65 Awards and Conference last year.

Mr Yeo, who has served in the mature estates of Paya Lebar and Potong Pasir, hopes to enable “seniors to enjoy a higher quality of life”. Referencing the time he helped launch the lasting power of attorney programme in Paya Lebar, Mr Yeo said his experiences have taught him that the way work on the ground is done is “extremely important”.

“We must listen carefully, go the extra mile and try our very best. I want to do more, and I hope to be given an opportunity to do so,” he added.

Ms Mariam Jaafar, 43

Ms Mariam is managing director and a partner at Boston Consulting Group. She has served on the Committee for the Future Economy chaired by Mr Heng Swee Keat and is also on GovTech's board of directors.

She has a master’s degree in electrical engineering from Stanford University, and a master’s degree in business administration from Harvard Business School. She was introduced in a Facebook post on March 31 by Sembawang GRC’s Amrin Amin, who helms the Woodlands ward.

Ms Mariam said what she cares about most is social mobility. “Singapore has always been a place where someone from a humble background can grow up to believe she can do anything she wants to do, be anyone she wants to be. But I think we all know that income inequality and technology disruption are real issues and they have been for some time,” she said.

“I want to help to give a voice to the needs and ideas of Singaporeans in order to help shape good policy as well as give a helping hand to residents on the ground. I'm an advocate for women. I'm a believer in youth, and I love Singapore.”

Mr Shawn Huang Wei Zhong, 38

Mr Huang is a director at state investment firm Temasek Holdings. Before that, he was a fighter pilot and commanding officer in the Republic of Singapore Air Force, where he served for 19 years. He was the parade commander for the 2018 National Day Parade.

He is the first non-American to become the top graduate in military performance at the United States Air Force Academy, where he graduated with a degree in aeronautical engineering. He joined the Air Force at 18 with “one single powerful idea that I play a small part contributing to the country.

Mr Huang is also a community volunteer in the Taman Jurong ward where he has mentored children from low-income homes and helped ex-offenders restart their lives.

“It is a fight that needs constant work and a whole of heart, and with that heart, there must also be a voice,” he said.

Ms Carrie Tan Huimin, 38

Ms Tan is the founder and executive director of Daughters of Tomorrow, a charity incorporated in August 2014, which helps underprivileged women in Singapore find jobs. 

Ms Tan said that by joining politics, she hopes to enhance policies “with a different perspective and more diversity” and to help those who are “more underserved and underrepresented” so that their voices and challenges can be heard.

“I believe that we need innovation, perhaps in the way that the government and people work together, and I hope to bring my experience and my skills in community building into politics and create a slightly different space where beyond the efficiency and the task-drivenness of solving problems we can create space for people's feelings to be valued and acknowledged.”

Ms Chan Hui Yuh, 44

Ms Chan is a marketing director at Jingslink Marketing and a long-time grassroots activist. She is an adviser to the Aljunied grassroots organisations and the branch chairman for the PAP’s Serangoon branch in Aljunied GRC.

She was initially slated to run as a PAP candidate in the 2015 generation election but pulled out to care for her two children. Ms Chan began assisting then-Member of Parliament Abdullah Tarmugi in Siglap in 2000, and subsequently helped Dr Maliki Osman. She has held various roles in the youth wing of the PAP, including as assistant organising secretary of the Young PAP Executive Committee.

She is also the voiceover talent behind the recorded announcements heard in MRT stations and trains. Ms Chan said that although she withdrew from candidacy in 2015, she was always “still there”, as she never left the party nor her position as chairman. Ms Chan added that she understands the needs and challenges of families with children and the elderly.

“The government must continue to listen and find new ways to meet the needs and aspirations of Singaporeans, and I look forward to being able to help make the system friendlier and easier for our citizens and businesses to get help to fulfill that daily needs, dreams and hopes,” she said.

Mr Xie Yao Quan, 35

Mr Xie, who is the head of healthcare redesign at Alexandra Hospital, has been a volunteer in Jurong since 2015 and has introduced several initiatives to support lower-income families in the area. He is also a board member of SG Enable and co-leads a taskforce to promote products made or designed by persons with disabilities. Prior to his current job, Mr Xie worked in an investment company and the Singapore Armed Forces.

Mr Xie hopes to ensure that Singaporeans will continue to get quality and affordable health care, even as the population becomes older,” he said. Mr Xie added that the reason he is now stepping forward is because he believes in the role of a member of Parliament in the local community.

“Bringing people together and just making extraordinary things happen for the benefit of residents in creating a better home for everyone. And I think this is how our democracy in Singapore has been, and should continue to be. It is a democracy of deeds, not just words, but of deeds that grows and strengthens and is built up from the ground up,” he said.
