Tampines Group Representation Constituency
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tampines Group Representation Constituency (Simplified Chinese: 淡滨尼集选区) is a five-member Group Representation Constituency (GRC) in the eastern region of Singapore. The GRC encompasses Tampines with five sub-constituencies, namely Tampines East, Tampines West, Tampines Central, Tampines North and Tampines Changkat. The GRC is led by Minister for National Development Mah Bow Tan since 1988 when it was formed and has been held by the People's Action Party since then. Tampines GRC has faced a contest in every general election except the 1997 general election. In the 2001 and 2006 general elections, the PAP's opponent is the Singapore Democratic Alliance.
