In one of the most exciting announcements made on Nomination Day (June 30), Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat was revealed to be the anchor minister for East Coast GRC.
East Coast GRC has received much online buzz as it was poised to be a hotly contested constituency between Workers’ Party (WP) and the People’s Action Party (PAP).
With former anchor minister Lim Swee Say stepping down and former MP Lee Yi Shyan not running in this general election, it left a “succession gap” that Heng volunteered to fill, according to a Facebook post he published on June 30.
Heng is the ruling party’s first assistant secretary-general and the incumbent anchor minister in Tampines GRC.
The Facebook post, which also served as a farewell letter to Tampines GRC, explained his reason for stepping up to the plate for East Coast GRC.
