Singapore GE: PM Lee urges Sengkang voters not to settle for ‘PAP-lite’ WP

Pointing to their manifestos, including WP’s, he added: “They take the PAP’s plan say, ‘It’s very good and here are a few holes, please patch the holes, here are a few places where you can add more money, make it cheaper, do more, work harder.’ He said: “If that was the case, I hope the PAP takes up all our manifesto points and introduces them into its agenda, because that will really change the shape of Singapore, and we will have a more caring and compassionate society.”
Lee spoke about the “valuable” experiences of the four PAP candidates in Sengkang GRC, such as Lam having been the chairman of Ang Mo Kio Town Council for five years. He also described Lye as a “very reliable soldier” with years of grassroots experience. “We are doing our best to help. What we need is to have Members of Parliament who would be able to know what the schemes are and to connect the schemes with the residents.”
The town council will look to build amenities such as children playgrounds, fitness zones, covered linkways and barrier-free access routes, as well as upgrade lifts in housing blocks to have enhanced safety features.
