PM Lee set on retaking Aljunied, will not abandon GRC

[satan_gal]

THE People's Action Party (PAP) will fight to win back Aljunied GRC.


Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, who is also PAP secretary-general, made the pledge on Sunday to party activists at its annual convention.


'We will not abandon Aljunied. We will not abandon our activists in Aljunied GRC, in the five branches,' he said.


The PAP will be the opposition in Aljunied for the next five years, he said, but the PAP will keep in touch with residents there, especially those who support the party

Well said! Be a real leader and test Singapore voters. if LTK is willing to sacrifice hougang and his future i see no reason why another mp cannot. Too much at stake to sacrifice?

redraw GRC bondary, split alj up to bishan, AMK, Holland/BT and Tanjong Pagar. Like that no more Alj, win liao.

I hope PAP lost more GRCs! I don't see them as the Ruling party. I see them as the RUINING party.

Kao Teng Kee by then?? 5yrs is a long time for him.

If Lily Neo goes Aljunied as PAP candidate, better chance for PAP. But if Lily Neo goes anywhere as an Oppsition, PAP better be worried. Afterall, a Nicole Seah almost unseated GOH CHOCK TONG!

That's what came to mind too. "Can you afford to lose a 'good' PM"?

I hope he lost his own GRC, he can't be PM then.

What was his percentage of votes in GE2006? He fared badly against a newbie team didn't he?

Heng you are not an artist in PAP... Tampines may be redrawn to Tanjung Pagah then

I don't understand how Commonwealth MRT area falls under Tanjung Pagah when inbetween Tanjung Pagay and Commonweath, there's West Coast GRC and a couple of single seat wards. They failed in arts
