WP's Likely Candidate Abdul Muhaimin Outlines Plans to Improve Sengkang

A potential candidate expected to fill the empty slot in the WP slate to contest Sengkang GRC has assured residents in Ms Raeesah Khan's former ward of Compassvale that he will work to address lift issues in the estate.

In an Instagram post on April 1, Mr Abdul Muhaimin Abdul Malik, a senior property manager at Aljunied-Hougang Town Council (AHTC), said he will work closely with the WP MPs in Sengkang GRC to identify and address the root causes of the lift problems.

Sharing photos of his house visits, he said Compassvale residents flagged concerns about lifts, which "are a crucial mode of vertical transport in Singapore, especially for the elderly".

The public promise to Sengkang GRC's residents is the strongest indication yet that Mr Abdul Muhaimin, 35, could be fielded in the four-member constituency at the upcoming general election.

Citing his experience in managing lifts in a town council for nearly a decade since August 2015, Mr Abdul Muhaimin said he understands what it takes to keep lifts running safely and reliably.

He said: "Asking the right questions, listening closely, and pushing for fixes – that's how we lift Sengkang GRC up, together".

Mr Abdul Muhaimin is no stranger to Compassvale as he has been helping out at monthly Meet-The-People Sessions in the ward under the mentorship of Aljunied GRC MP Faisal Manap.
