GE2025: East Coast GRC hosts head-to-head between PAP team led by Edwin Tong and WP slate with Yee Jenn Jong

BIG Boots CAN BE” BIG FEET”

The five-member East Coast district was extensively altered by the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee next quarter. &nbsp,

The neighboring Marine Parade GRC’s Chai Chee Housing Board and Siglap secret estates were relocated to a new Pasir Ris-Changi GRC, and many districts were taken over. &nbsp,

As of February 1, there were 150, 691 electors in East Coast GRC. &nbsp,

Mr. Tong said in a statement following his team’s confirmation of election that:” We will listen to your expectations and concerns. We may realize your dreams. We will use all of our resources to assist you if elected.”

He later claimed that Mr. Yee was a” great opponent” and that he anticipated a “tight” competition in the poll.

” We have a robust and varied team, but there is a lot of work ahead of us,” said Mr. Tong.

He stated on the WP stone,” This is a group we are taking quite seriously.” We don’t take it for granted; instead, we will work more and equally hard to ensure that new eyes are caught up as soon as possible.

He was also questioned about Mr. Heng’s decision to leave politics and whether he had significant openings to load.

Mr. Tong said,” Yes, but fortunately we also have great feet.”

In his assurance conversation, Mr. Yee praised the hard work of numerous thousands of volunteers and former candidates who have worked here for the past 20 years. We will speak up for you in congress.

His WP group declined to respond to questions from writers.

A NEWER, CLOSE FIGHT

East Coast was a page of strongly contested elections in the previous vote in 2020, when DPM Heng and Ms. Nicole Seah of WP. &nbsp,

One of the group’s most sparse successes in that General Election was when the PAP team won over WP with 53.39 percent of the seats.

This was a decrease from the PAP’s 60. 73 % in the 2015 election, and it was also the WP’s strongest performance in the GRC since 2006.

The ruling group had fielded Mr. Heng, Dr. Maliki Osman, Ms. Jessica Tan, Ms. Cheryl Chan, and Mr. Tan Kiat How, who was then-newcomer. &nbsp,

On Monday, Dr. Maliki and Ms. Chan both retired from politicians.

The WP stone therefore included Mr. Terence Tan, Mr. Dylan Ng, Mr. Kenneth Foo, and Mr. Abdul Shariff Aboo Kassim, with the exception of Ms. Seah.
