Workers' Party leaders Pritam Singh
Workers' Party (WP) chief Pritam Singh said that the party was trying to balance continuity and
renewal in its latest Central Executive Committee (CEC) changes, with he and party chair Sylvia
Lim continuing to head WP even as younger members were inducted into the CEC.
Mr Singh remains secretary-general and Ms Sylvia Lim stays on as party chair, while former
WP chief Low Thia Khiang and veteran former MP Png Eng Huat were retained as committee
members in a Cadre Members' Conference on Sunday (Dec 27).
When asked what this signifies, Mr Singh said that there needs to be a trajectory for renewal.
"This time around, the cadre membership ... recognises the importance of this renewal
trajectory that we are on - having a good balance of experience and new blood," he said.
"I think it's very important that some of our most experienced members continue to be
a central part of the party," he added.
Among the newer members of the CEC are the four Sengkang Members of Parliament,
Ms He Tingru, Mr Louis Chua Kheng Wee, Dr Jamus Lim and Ms Raeesah Khan
They are joined in the committee by the younger party members, who had contested in East
Coast GRC - Ms Nicole Seah and Mr Kenneth Foo.
