SINGAPORE: The National Solidarity Party (NSP) has announced that it will field lawyer Jeannette Chong-Aruldoss as its candidate for the single-member constituency of Mountbatten in the upcoming General Election.

In a statement on Sunday, Ms Chong said Mountbatten is very close to her heart as she had lived there as a child and in the early years of her marriage.

She said she wants to use her candidacy in Mountbatten as an avenue for residents to have their own voice in Parliament.

47-year-old Ms Chong has been a lawyer for 22 years.

She plans to address issues such as the growing income disparity between the rich and the poor, healthcare expenses of the elderly, as well as the rising costs of living.

Ms Chong earned her law degree from the United Kingdom and was called to the English Bar in 1986. She also holds a Masters Degree in Corporate and Commercial Law from the London School of Economics and Political Science. She regularly offers her legal services to lower-income Singaporeans and was an Honorary Secretary of a church council in Katong from 2006 to 2010.

Since 2008, she has been serving in the management council of a residential estate in Siglap, comprising over 1,000 units.

Ms Chong is married and has four children, who are between 12 and 21 years old.

This lady lawyer will fare better than her boss, GMS by quite a distance. She appears equal to the MIW in terms of academic credentials. Surely ahead of WKS. In terms of height and paper qualifications. Ms Chong should emerge with credible results. I don't see her going below 40%. I fear her boss GMS will.

 

[Sideswipe]

Ms Chong should emerge with credible results. I don't see her going below 40%.

Mountbatten is a new smc. can't see PAP craving out a new seat for them to lose or give oppo a slim chance. Mountbatten will be among PAP top scoring seats.

My crystal ball tells me GMS will be the fourth PM of Singapore.

Just read this Chinese name carefully:

1. He speaks from heaven
2. He encompasses both day and night
3. He is the instrument of success

Before 劉邦 became Emperor, nobody thought he might stand a chance, especially when compared to his rival 項羽。

 

[gbomega]

Mountbatten is PAP stronghold. I think this lady will give them a hard fight.

 

[Khun Ying Pojaman]

Mountbatten is PAP stronghold. I think this lady will give them a hard fight.

She must provide FREE legal counselling during Meet the People sessions. That will be her promise to the electorate. Must offer carrots to Singaporeans.

 

[dysentry]

she might have a chance under WP, but NSP doesn't have much clout with the public.

few people know a party like NSP exists, to me personally it feels too cheena to garner minority votes, same problem as WP.

does Mountbatten include the Old Airport Rd market area?

 

[Robert Half]

Mountbatten is a new smc. can't see PAP craving out a new seat for them to lose or give oppo a slim chance. Mountbatten will be among PAP top scoring seats.

Totally agreed

Mountbatten is PAP stronghold. I think this lady will give them a hard fight.

Maybe 38% of valid votes to her :p
