SINGAPORE: The opposition has won the Hougang Single-Member Constituency (SMC) while the People's Action Party (PAP) took the remaining 11 single-seat constituencies in the General Election.
Mr Yaw Shin Leong from the opposition Workers' Party won against PAP's Desmond Choo in Hougang, taking 64.81 per cent of the valid votes.
Mr Yaw said: "This is very humbling moment for me.
"It is very humbling because the people of Hougang has not just voted with their hearts, but also their minds.
"Because they know Hougang has a role to play. This role has nationalistic importance. For this victory and mandate, I want to thank one person, my mentor Mr Low Thia Khiang".
