Geographically, this GRC consists of the areas of Tanjong Pagar, Queenstown, Tiong Bahru, Tanglin, Orchard Road, Bukit Merah, Buona Vista and Pek Kio. Tanjong Pagar GRC is both helmed by Minister in the Prime Minister's Office and second minister of Finance and Education Indranee Rajah, and Minister for Trade and Industry Chan Chun Sing. This GRC notably contains the electoral division where the late founding Prime Minister and former Senior Minister/Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew had stood since his debut in 1955 until his death on 23 March 2015, after serving for 60 years. HistoryThis GRC came into formation in 1991, when it absorbed the Tiong Bahru GRC, Telok Blangah SMC and Tanjong Pagar SMC. Since the formation of the GRC, the ward was notable for its repeated walkovers until the ward faced its inaugural contest on the 2015 elections by Singaporeans First, whose candidates included former SDP members Tan Jee Say and Ang Yong Guan. In the most recent walkover in 2011, Tanjong Pagar GRC became the only constituency to be uncontested following the disqualification of a team of independent candidates (which led by Ng Teck Siong) as they submitted their nomination papers 35 seconds late.[1] Several current ministers had cut their teeth in Tanjong Pagar before moving on to other constituencies. Among them, the following:
During the time Lee was then-Senior Minister, Koo Tsai Kee substituted Lee for his Meet-the-People Sessions (MPS). After the 2011 elections, Lee retired from the cabinet but remained as MP for Tanjong Pagar-Tiong Bahru until his death on 2015; Indranee Rajah, who substituted Koo for the MPS at the time, became the ward's successor; her ward of Tanglin-Cairnhill was divided into Henderson-Dawson and Moulmein-Cairnhill wards and were helmed by Joan Pereira and Melvin Yong, respectively.
