Festival streets in Sengkang where different generations can mingle are among 19 proposals that PAP candidates for the GRC have put up, hoping they will sway the minds of residents there.
Apart from being more responsive to feedback about the estate, the team wants to make amenities in the town more meaningful and purposeful, academic Elmie Nekmat told the media on April 27 before a walkabout at Buangkok Hawker Centre.
The PAP Sengkang GRC manifesto describes a festival street as one that has green initiatives, local art, food and music.
The 43-year-old NUS associate professor said the idea of a festival street is to bring together youth, local culture, local food and local experiences, and where people of different generations can share their experiences and help shape spaces in Sengkang.
The 24-page manifesto was released online on Nomination Day after the team confirmed its candidacy, detailing plans ranging from improving connectivity of bus routes to discounts for essential household items.
