PAP retains Holland-Bukit Timah against new opponent RDU
The PAP team in Holland-Bukit Timah GRC defended its seats with 79.29 per cent of the votes against new challenger Red Dot United (RDU).
This is up from 66.36 per cent in the 2020 election, when the same team led by Foreign Minister Vivian Balakrishnan, 64, contended with a slate from the Singapore Democratic Party (SDP).
It is also historically the best performance for the four-member group representation constituency, apart from a walkover in 2006 when the GRC was created. The PAP won 60.08 per cent and 66.6 per cent of all valid votes in 2011 and 2015, respectively.
Dr Balakrishnan's team includes Senior Minister of State for Foreign Affairs and National Development Sim Ann, 50, lawyer Christopher de Souza, 49, and businessman Edward Chia, 41.
Addressing supporters at Bukit Gombak Stadium after the official results were announced, Dr Balakrishnan said they were "deeply humbled to have this strong mandate".
"We view this victory as an opportunity to reaffirm our commitment to all our residents," said the minister.
