THE current anchor minister for Holland-Bukit Timah GRC, Mr Lim Swee Say, unveiled his successor on Saturday.
Minister for Community Development, Youth and Sports Vivian Balakrishnan will helm the four-man team there for the coming General Election and beyond, Mr Lim said.
'Under the leadership of Dr Vivian and the team of four...it will be a smaller GRC but a better GRC, so please support them!' Mr Lim urged residents at a community event in Ulu Pandan.
The annointing came a week after it was announced that Mr Lim, who is labour chief and Minister in the Prime Minister's Office, had been redeployed to lead the People's Action Party's (PAP) five-man team in East Coast GRC.
Mr Lim's Buona Vista ward became part of Tanjong Pagar GRC under the latest electoral boundary changes, reducing Holland-Bukit Timah GRC from a five-man GRC to four-man GRC.
Speaking to reporters after the announcement, Dr Vivian, who has served as MP for two separate divisions in the GRC (Cashew and Ulu Pandan), emphasised his personal links to the GRC and the strong track record of MPs there.
'This is home for me: I live in this GRC. My parents were teachers in Bukit Panjang Primary School so if I could pick a GRC which reflects my roots and my origins, this is it,' he said.

YOUTH OLYMPIC GAMES: SINGAPORE 2010
$387m on YOG well spent

By Leonard Lim

THE Government's projected $387 million tab for the Youth Olympic Games is more than triple the original estimates, but it will be money well-spent.

Minister for Community Development, Youth and Sports Vivian Balakrishnan said in a round-up on the YOG yesterday with local media: 'I have no doubt we will recoup our investment, both on the tangible side and intangible side of the ledger.

"The Singapore Government has not lost its bearings and its carefulness in the way we spend money.'

There has been criticism online on whether the money devoted to the Games, which end on Thursday, will benefit Singaporeans.

But MCYS said previously it has provided a fillip to businesses, with about $260million worth of contracts awarded to local companies, and estimated tourism receipts of $57 million.

On the intangible side, Dr Balakrishnan said it would continue to brand the country as an excellent place to live, work and play.

'It's really part of our larger game plan of re-positioning Singapore. We now want to be one of the most exciting, happening, dynamic, vibrant places that cater to all needs,' he added​

VB should just retire gracefully and return to the medical profession. More respect for him if he throws in the towel now and return to checking eyes and conducting operations.
