This morning saw the revelation of a surprise showdown for the votes of residents in East Coast GRC: a battle between comeback kid Nicole Seah and her Workers’ Party (WP team) and Heng Swee Keat, tipped to be the next prime minister, leading his People’s Action Party (PAP) squad.
It was quite a bombshell. Heng has been an MP in Tampines GRC since 2011, and the decision to move the deputy prime minister to East Coast GRC signals how the PAP does not want to take any chances against a robust team fielded by WP in the constituency.
It would also appear that PAP had purposefully kept who they would field as the anchor minister for its East Coast GRC team a secret right to the last minute, as Heng’s name was the only one that was handwritten on the nomination papers.
