Mr Sidek Mallek is a Compliance Auditor for a leading security company. A former civil servant, who in 1989, received the Finance Minister’s Commendation for Outstanding Work from Dr. Richard Hu, Sidek carries the same work excellence into the private sector. In 2008, his diligence earned him the Commissioner of Police Award for Outstanding Contribution.
Sidek also holds a Professional Certificate from the Institute of Administrative Management. Married with three children, he enjoys cooking, baking, bowling and simply chilling with his family.
Sidek joins the Singapore Democratic Party because he believes it a credible party that has studied and put forth many alternative policies to benefit Singaporeans. He is very concerned about problems low-income families face:
“Many people cannot afford basic necessities. It is unflattering and irresponsible for Ministers to say people who earn a mere $1000 a month can buy and own a HDB flat.”
Having contributed a fair share of his thoughts on such issues in the social media, Sidek is convinced it is now time to take them to parliament. He wishes to:
- Highlight socio-economic problems faced by low-income families,
- Cut red tape and provide assistance for needy citizens in a timely manner,
- Improve job security and continuity,
- Enhance educational opportunities for children of low-income families, and
- Ensure single parents are treated equally in matters of housing, children education and other basic needs.
Sidek believes in the democratic process in addressing issues that impact Singaporeans’ quality of life and wellbeing. He hopes constituents will let him be their voice in Parliament.
