ROLE AS AN MP AND GRASSROOTS ADVISOR
Well into my fourth term as MP of Kampong Glam under the Jalan Besar GRC, I am happy to serve my residents in many areas.
As we continue to navigate through COVID-19, many of our initiatives have evolved, and some have come back even stronger.
Many of our activities are not only driven by the Kampong Glam division team but also through active community participation.
Our initiatives include:
Key estate improvements, including Home Improvement Programmes, Lift Upgrading Programmes, covered link ways and overhead bridge lifts in many precincts
Bringing together previously uncoordinated services for our elderly residents through PeaceConnect Senior Activity Centres
Financial and social assistance for lower-income households, including Adopt a Family scheme, Milk and Diaper scheme, Tuition with Love programme
Installation of several signature programmes to build community cohesion including Breakfast with Love, National Day Block Parties

So heartwarming to see parents and little ones having fun and creating the same precious memories together!
What an engaging session with my fellow Grassroots Advisers and our Youth Leaders from Jalan Besar GRC!
Always so good to see residents in their living settings – and to discover their needs on the ground, and to refer them to the appropriate support or community services.
Encouraged by the women-led retail businesses spotlighted at the bazaar curated by the Singapore Indian Association last weekend!
