Ong Ye Kung and now Desmond Choo....

By Andrea Ong
FORMER People's Action Party Hougang candidate Desmond Choo is leaving the labour movement for the private sector.

Mr Choo, 35, is the National Trades Union Congress' (NTUC) deputy director of industrial relations and the National Transport Workers' Union's (NTWU) deputy executive secretary. He will leave NTUC at the end of this month.

Yesterday, he told The Straits Times that resigning from the labour movement was not an easy decision and that he remains committed to workers' causes.

"But I thought that after spending most of my working life in the civil service and some of it in NTUC, I should get more exposure in the private sector," said the former police scholarship holder who joined NTUC in 2010. He has found a job in the private sector but declined to give more details.

Both have had adverse events hanging over their head. One is the issue over bus drivers failed negotiations and the other is with his uncle who is repeat offender. Not sure if any one wants them. Ong might still contest.

They've been scraping the bottom of the barrel post 2006. No one worth his salt wants to be associated with a political organization that is bringing down Singapore rather than lifting our country up.

NTUC is probably paying below market rate for the same level. With high chances of getting elected no longer there, they need to plan for their career. If chances is 99% like how it was, they can stay with NTUC forever as the MP role supplements their NTUC income and boosts the NTUC portfolio too.
