Opposition party Singaporeans First (SingFirst) said on Saturday (Aug 1) it has identified a slate of candidates to contest Tanjong Pagar GRC in the next election, but stopped short of naming them.
Party chief Tan Jee Say said that they range from 30 to 60 years of age. He added that some of them were with him and his team of volunteers at Tiong Bahru on Saturday for their walkabouts in the five-member constituency.
"We have a diversified and balanced slate of candidates, of various ages and various backgrounds," Mr Tan said. He did not name the candidates, citing it as part of his party's strategy.
The Tanjong Pagar constituency, currently helmed by the People's Action Party, has been uncontested since it became a multi-seat GRC in 1991.
"For nearly 27 years since 1988, the voters of Tanjong Pagar have not had the opportunity to vote for their members of parliament, to represent their interests. So we're coming in to give them this opportunity to elect their own Members of Parliament,” said Mr Tan.
