SINGAPORE - Ang Mo Kio GRC MP Ng Ling Ling does not know if she will contest the next general election in Jalan Kayu, which has been carved out as a single seat. Asked if she will run in the single-member constituency, she told reporters on March 23 that she will wait for PAP leaders, including Prime Minister Lawrence Wong, to make the call. “We trust our leaders. I think the best team must run in the GE,” added the 53-year-old. “For me, I just want the residents to be happy.” Ms Ng was speaking on the sidelines of a residents’ carnival in Seletar Hills, which is part of Ang Mo Kio GRC. Two of the other four Ang Mo Kio MPs – Senior Minister Lee Hsien Loong and Ms Nadia Ahmad Samdin – were also present, along with about 900 residents. The newly minted Jalan Kayu SMC will take in areas from Ang Mo Kio GRC that are currently in Ms Ng’s Jalan Kayu ward, and also parts of Mr Gan Thiam Poh’s Fernvale. During the event, Ms Ng was also asked if she hopes to keep serving residents in her ward. She replied that she wishes to be able to support all Singaporeans.
