He's happy with the work of his MPs
WITH reference to last Thursday's report ('WP eyes 'hot ward' Aljunied, PAP team gears up), it is not surprising that Workers' Party (WP) chairman Sylvia Lim is eyeing the Aljunied GRC in the next general election, having won 43.9 per cent of the votes previously.
However, what is important is not the votes she garnered, but what she has done for the constituents of the GRC.
Her walkabouts and those of her WP colleagues involve selling newsletters and speaking with residents. What have they done to make a difference to the lives of residents there, such as helping us to solve our problems?
I have been a resident of Aljunied GRC for the past 10 years. I can see the vast changes and improvements to the living environment and the quality of life.
We enjoy many amenities, and our MPs work hard to improve our lives. They visit residents every week and tend to needy families with various assistance schemes. The neighbourhoods are vibrant and active.
The MPs are always on hand to help us. They have also delivered on their promises. I now get to use a gym at Kovan Hub to help me lead a healthy lifestyle.
I would not trade the quality of life under the present Aljunied leadership with one that is unknown and untested, no matter how seductive the opposition propositions.
