SETBACK IN 2020 WAS” HUMBLING.”
Mr. Ng even stated in his May Day protest statement that his experience with the NTUC has taught him what it means to “persevere on.”  ,
” I felt that I had let all of you along in 2020. Dealing with that loss has been humbling in turn, he said.
In the 2020 General Election, Mr. Ng was a member of the People’s Action Party ( PAP ) team that lost the Sengkang Group Representation Constituency ( GRC ) to the Workers ‘ Party ( WP ) in the general election.  ,
With 52 % of the ballot, the WP group won. Sengkang became the second-ever GRC gained by an opposition party after Aljunied GRC.
” But it has also taught me a lot of valuable instructions,” Mr. Ng continued. I’ve come to the realization that failing does not equate to loss in more depth. No how we define ourselves, but how we keep pushing forward and doing everything in our power determines our success.
In the 2025 election, Mr. Ng will face WP’s Andre Low in the new Jalan Kayu Single Member Constituency ( SMC) that was created by Ang Mo Kio GRC following the most recent electoral boundaries review.  ,
The labor key demanded in his closing statement that the union should unite and protest for a better life and livelihood for workers, a brighter prospect for children, and a stronger Singapore.
