SINGAPORE: Minister for Culture, Community and Youth Lawrence Wong on Saturday (Aug 1) announced that he will represent the People's Action Party (PAP) to contest in the new Marsiling-Yew Tee GRC.
This means Mr Wong will leave his Boon Lay ward in West Coast GRC for the upcoming General Election.
"The past four years have been wonderful for me in Boon Lay and I want to thank all the residents of Boon Lay for their friendship and also for the guidance they have given me over these past four years," he said to reporters at a grassroots event at the Sports Park at Woodlands Avenue 1.
In the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee's report released last week, Marsiling-Yew Tee became a newly formed four-member GRC while West Coast GRC was downsized from a five-member GRC to a four-member one.
"What's important for me now is to spend time here, get to know residents, get to understand all of them, their families, their concerns and their aspirations," Mr Wong said.
