Red Dot United introduces party member during maiden walkabout in Jalan Kayu
March 22, 2025
|The Straits Times
The opposition Red Dot United (RDU) party went on its maiden walkabout in Jalan Kayu SMC on March 21 and introduced a party member who will lead the team in the newly carved-out ward.
RDU secretary-general Ravi Philemon said it is too soon to announce who the party will field in Jalan Kayu, but introduced former Progress Singapore Party (PSP) member Kala Manickam, an educator and a former Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) officer.
Madam Kala, 57, has a Master of Arts in lifelong learning, and her work focuses on helping workers gain skills that lead to career advancement and job opportunities.
Speaking to reporters, Madam Kala said: "We have very hardworking and capable Singaporeans who go through all this retraining, but apparently they don't seem to get job opportunities, and see stagnation in their wages and no recognition for the value of their work...
"So, that's something that we need to explore, in terms of getting job opportunities."
She added that Jalan Kayu has many young families with children, and she plans to tackle the issue of academic stress that families face.
