  • Ng Chee Meng Joins Teo Chee Hean In Pasir Ris-Punggol GRC

    Ng Chee Meng Joins Teo Chee Hean In Pasir Ris-Punggol GRC

    The People’s Action Party (PAP) has introduced two new faces in the six-member Pasir Ris-Punggol team for the coming election.

    They are former defence chief Ng Chee Meng, 47, and Temasek Holdings investment director Sun Xueling, 36, also known as Soon Sher Rene.

    Deputy Prime Minister Teo Chee Hean announced the line-up at the PAP Punggol North Branch at Edgedale Plains on Saturday morning.

    The others on the slate are  Mr Teo, Minister of State and Mayor Teo Ser Luck, Mr Zainal Sapari, and Dr Janil Puthucheary.

    Ms Penny Low, 48, announced that she was stepping down after three terms as MP in the GRC.

    Current Pasir Ris-Punggol MP Gan Thiam Poh, 51, has joined the Ang Mo Kio team after his Punggol South ward was absorbed into the GRC in the recent boundary changes.

    Mr Ng retired from the Singapore Armed Forces on Aug 18, and is seen as a potential office-holder.

    The three-star general is the highest-ranking Singapore Armed Forces officer to join the PAP to date.

    Ms Sun started helping out at grassroots events in Buona Vista in 2001 before she joined Pasir Ris-Punggol GRC.

    In the 2011 election, the PAP team fielded in Pasir Ris-Punggol polled 64.8 per cent against a Singapore Democratic Alliance (SDA) team.

    The SDA has said it will be contesting there again in the coming election.

  • Online Scammer Masquerading As PAP’s Zainal Sapari

    Online Scammer Masquerading As PAP’s Zainal Sapari

    SINGAPORE — Member of Parliament Zainal Sapari, of Pasir Ris-Punggol GRC, has warned of an imposter trying to scam people via Facebook.

    “An unknown person has created a scam Facebook page using my name and photo,” Mr Zainal wrote in a Facebook post this afternoon (Nov 11). “He may have send you a personal message to be friends and follow up with a message about UN funding that I have received.”

    The imposter would then try to direct unsuspecting victims to click on an external link, where they could supposedly register to receive cash from the United Nations Development Programme as well.

    The fake Facebook account carried Mr Zainal’s name and his most recent profile photo. Mr Zainal has since changed his profile picture as of 6pm today.

  • Sekolah Larang Pakai Hijab Pada Sambutan Hari Kebangsaan Walaupun Tidak Beruniform

    Sekolah Larang Pakai Hijab Pada Sambutan Hari Kebangsaan Walaupun Tidak Beruniform

    singapore national day

    Assalamu’alaikum…. haaaahhh…. hari ni saya nak luahkan perasaan sedih… Hari ni adalah hari sambutan hari kebangsaan singapura (sengaja xmo letak caps) di semua sekolah.

    So, hari ini semua pelajar boleh pakai fesyen apa sahaja asalkan merah dan putih. So anak saya pakai lah T shirt merah dan putih berserta seluar panjang putih dan tudung putih. Masa assembly, ada satu teacher cina tu, suruh dia bukak tudung dgn alasan tudung tak dibenarkan di sekolah.

    Persoalannya, saya faham, tudung is not part of the school uniform. Anak saya tak pakai school uniform pun… baju luar… merah dan putih… Free Fashion…. tahun lepas pun sama tapi tak ada masalah pun… form teacher pun tak suruh bukak…

    Saya dah email pada sch principal mintak teacher ni difahamkan … saya tanya sekali.. ni teacher ada masalah ke dengan Malay Muslim…

    Saya harap perkara ni dapat diselesaikan dengan tenang… saya cuma curhat je di sini… tak paham ah bangsa mereka ni… Free Fashion pun nak control ke???

    The sch name is Zhenghua Primary… En Zainal MP dah bantu saya speak to VP. VP was not aware of this… saya reply, saya tak kisah lah kalau sekolah tu bagi surat, bagitau dgn parents no head gears is allowed. ok fine… anak saya pakai uniform je kalau gitu kan… mcm nurse … saya dulu pun gitu, gi sekolah bertudung sampai sekolah bukak lah pakai uniform… tak der masalah pun… saja je teacher bangang agaknya.

    VP baru call… dia apologize.. kisahnya sebenar, this Mdm Teng Litan ni, waktu she demanded my daughter to take off her tudung, ada satu lagi teacher intervene asking her to refer to Mr Faisal sbb Mr Faisal ni is the in charge of the Muslim Affair student kt sklh tu… but she did not do that… so bila MP called to inform the school, she peng story kata, she tak demand cuma request je… i snubbed back la… kalau request, suara tak kan tegas garang sampai budak tu takut lalu bukak tudung… I asked the VP, so if Insyirah did not take off her tudung, will Mdm Teng take disciplinary action against her? That was the implication she gave to my daughter… The VP apologize banyak banyak kali.

    I also mentioned that kalau tak mo bagi pakai head gear, then tulis surat clearly state that no head gears are allowed. Saya akan suruh anak saya pakai uniform je… lagipun saya cakap, head gears utk anak saya tu, sbb kan dia suka fesyen bertudung… tak der kena mengena dgn agama pun… saya galakkan je lah.. lagipun dah kebetulan satu tuntutan agama… so tak payahlah saya nak nasihat kan dia suruh pakai tudung kan…

    2LT Khabir Ashraf Bin Mohamed Sultan was enlisted in 2012 to the Obese Basic Military Training (BMT). He excelled in BMT and was posted to Officer Cadet School (OCS). He is now a Platoon Commander (PC) at BMTC handling the obese batch, he feels privileged to be able to motivate recruits with his experience.

    “Although the training was very tough, the encouragement that my commanders gave and the support from my fellow platoon mates gave me the energy to excel in my BMT. Today, I use my experiences to help me become a role model to my recruits and to motivate them to do better.”

    Well done 2LT Khabir!
