3 PAP new faces seem to have been redeployed to other constituencies ahead of GE2025

They are Ms Chua Wei-Shan, an entrepreneur; Ms Valerie Lee Nai Yi, Sembcorp's head of corporate affairs for Singapore and South-east Asia; and Mr David Hoe, director of philanthropy at The Majority Trust, a registered charity.

They are now likely to contest in Chua Chu Kang, East Coast and Tampines GRCs, respectively, if fielded.

Ms Chua is organising secretary of the Young PAP. In January 2024, she was appointed acting branch chairman in former transport minister S. Iswaran's West Coast ward after he resigned.

But she has recently been seen at events in Chua Chu Kang GRC.

On March 9, she was at the launch of a free food initiative for low-income residents, which was also attended by the constituency's MPs - Deputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong and Mayor of South West District Low Yen Ling, who is also Senior Minister of State for Culture, Community and Youth and Trade and Industry.
