ROLE AS A MAYOR
I am honoured to be the mayor of Central Singapore Community Development Council.
Aligned with CDC’s vision, I am passionate about aggregating the needs of our community, building capabilities in partners and networks and connecting with communities. The ABCs of our CDC are what drive us to do what we do.
As I helm Central Singapore CDC, I, together with my teammates, envision to build a Do-Good District to support our residents to live The Better Life. Five key pillars include:
Financial wellness
Physical wellness
Socio-emotional wellness and inclusiveness
Lifelong learning
Service to others
Each post in this section documents just some of the many activities my team and I carry out, aligned with our five key pillars.
Did you know? As mayor of Central Singapore CDC, I am proud to champion 52 programme offerings with my team and volunteers. See some of our programme offerings here:
“A good city is not measured only by how lively it is at night, but by how liveable it remains at home. As Singapore continues to intensify and mix uses more closely, our governance tools must evolve accordingly.”
Thank you all for choosing to roll up your sleeves again and again, so our seniors can live with more dignity and comfort.
When you encounter a GiraffeSG bench, sit down, take a moment to reflect how you can ‘stick your neck out’ for others, for the common good!
As we strengthen NCSS and the system around it, we must also preserve the diversity, the humanity and the community-driven spirit innovation that give the sector its strength.

My CDC team and I remain committed to supporting our young in need (and we keep looking for resources to do this) — because this is what looking out for each other means!
