You may remember Charles Yeo from the Reform Party.

He became a meme after delivering a constituency broadcast speech on July 3.

RP's constituency political broadcast only featured two candidates in the Ang Mo Kio team that day: Charles Yeo and Noraini Yunus.

The other three candidates, Kenneth Jeyaretnam, chairman Andy Zhu and Soh Guan Soon, were not present.

Soh was supposed to deliver the Mandarin speech. However, Soh was unwell on that day, leaving Yeo to do it instead.

On July 13, he engaged with the Instagram crowd via submitted questions on Instagram stories.
