The new electoral boundaries in the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee (EBRC) report will see estates in the existing West Coast GRC — including some in Dover and Telok Blangah — absorbed into Tanjong Pagar GRC for the upcoming election.
Minister for Education and Tanjong Pagar GRC MP Chan Chun Sing visited one of the soon-to-be Tanjong Pagar GRC areas in Telok Blangah with West Coast GRC MP Rachel Ong on Mar. 15.
Ong is the current representative of the Telok Blangah ward.
He documented the visit on Facebook, noting that many residents had asked if Ong would "continue to take care of them".In the same Facebook post, Chan said he would "also like it to be so".
Ong shared the post with a "grateful" caption.
Tanjong Pagar GRC and Queenstown SMC
According to the EBRC report, Tanjong Pagar will remain a 5-member GRC, however a new SMC, Queenstown SMC, will be carved out.
This means Tanjong Pagar GRC would need at least one more candidate for the upcoming elections.
The current MP overseeing the Queenstown ward at the moment is Eric Chua.
However, Chua said it would be "anyone's guess" who PAP would field in the new SMC.
