The 39-year-old prosecutor took over as the president of the ruling group’s tree in Hougang on Feb 17. He replaced Mr Jackson Lam, who had served in the responsibility since October 2023.
Hougang has been an antagonism enclave since 1991, and Mr Lim’s visit signals PAP’s ongoing efforts to make gains in the single-seat district.
During his first major walkabout last Sunday ( Mar 2 ), Mr Lim visited Hougang Avenue 5, greeting residents and shop owners in the housing estate.
” I particularly appreciated the small moments of connection – a smile, a hand, a shared laugh”, he afterward said on social media. ” These easy gestures speak to the enormous kindness, warmth and connection of our Hougang people”.
A lover at nearby strong Martin &, Partners, Mr Lim specialises in criminal legislation. He was formerly a deputy public prosecutor at the Attorney-General’s Halls before becoming an assistant chief people keeper at the Public Defender’s Ofice, which provides legal help to those facing non-capital costs.
