Priority walk-ins for seniors, kids at Choa Chu Kang Polyclinic

A new mosque for Tengah residents, $1 deals for essential items and priority walk-ins at Choa Chu Kang Polyclinic — these are among the changes the constituency's MPs have been working on in the first 100 days of taking office after the 2025 General Election in May.

Speaking to the media on Aug 10 after interacting with a breakfast crowd during a walkabout in Teck Whye Lane, the team detailed its efforts in Chua Chu Kang GRC since it took charge.

"Prior to the general election, we talked about a 100-day plan. We've reached that particular milestone, and we thought that it is important for us to give an update as to what are some of the initiatives we have identified that we're going to put into action, as well as some of the immediate low-hanging fruits and quick wins that we will be able to implement very quickly," said Manpower Minister Tan See Leng, who is the anchor minister for the GRC.

He added that the team has engaged residents through chit-chat sessions and dialogues, as well as walkabouts, since taking office.

His team includes Acting Minister for Transport Jeffrey Siow, second-term MP and lawyer Zhulkarnain Abdul Rahim and first-term MP and neuroscientist Choo Pei Ling.

The PAP team retained Chua Chu Kang GRC for a fourth consecutive term in the general election held on May 3.
