Once
again, The Independent Singapore (TISG), founded and run by Leon Perera
of Workers' Party, attempts to mislead their readers with a misleading
status and a false headline.
The status gives the impression that the Marine Parade MPs have redrawn their ELECTORAL boundaries after the election while the headline screams 'blatant lawlessness'.
This isn't what a responsible opposition would do. Wonder why the proxy for WP is doing that.
Let's get the facts straight.
Under the law, every MP in a GRC has an equal responsibility for the whole GRC and not only of a particular ward.
Within a GRC, MPs have the discretion to sub-divide the constituency among themselves and give names to the INTERNAL SUB-DIVISIONS, sometimes informally known as wards.
The purpose of such internal divisions is to enable the MPs to better serve the residents. And this was exactly what the MPs of Marine Parade GRC had done.
This isn't even anything new. And this isn't something that only PAP MPs can do.
