GE2025: Chee Soon Juan needs to explain abandoning Bukit Batok for Sembawang West, says Ong Ye Kung

People’s Action Party’s (PAP) Ong Ye Kung said that the Singapore Democratic Party’s (SDP) Chee Soon Juan needs to give a better explanation on why he “abandoned Bukit Batok to come to Sembawang West". Speaking at an election rally on Thursday (Apr 24), the second day of the #GE2025 campaign, the anchor minister for Sembawang GRC said that if the SDP chief became MP for the adjacent Sembawang West SMC, he would not be able to properly take care of residents there. Saying that Sembawang West SMC residents were “still part of the big Sembawang family”, he urged voters to choose PAP candidate Poh Li San to keep the “strong family ties”. Mr Ong was among the speakers at Woodlands Stadium, along with Ms Poh and Marsiling-Yew Tee GRC candidates, Mr Zaqy Mohamad, Mr Alex Yam and Ms Hany Soh. PM Lawrence Wong gave the final speech of the night.
