Former chief of army David Neo has joined the PAP's Tampines GRC team in the lead-up to the election, with the constituency's anchor minister Masagos Zulkifli saying he hopes the line-up there will be confirmed soon.

Mr Neo, 47, has been introduced to various parts of Tampines and has been following the incumbents on house visits, said Mr Masagos, who is Social and Family Development Minister.

He has also been joining the team at many events around Tampines.

"We are happy that he's making his rounds and getting himself familiar with them," said Mr Masagos.

He added: "Today, I'm happy to have David Neo joining our team. We hope that the final confirmation of the team will be made soon."

Mr Masagos made these comments on the sidelines of the Ira-ma Aidilfitri 2025 Concert at Our Tampines Hub on April 12.

He was joined by his fellow Tampines GRC MPs - Senior Minister of State for Manpower and Sustainability and the Environment Koh Poh Koon (Tampines Central); Senior Parliamentary Secretary for Transport and Sustainability and the Environment Baey Yam Keng (Tampines North); and North East District Mayor Desmond Choo (Tampines Changkat).
