The Workers' Party (WP) unveiled Lee Li Lian, 34, as its candidate for the Punggol East by-election at a media conference at its party headquarters at Syed Alwi on Monday morning.
The move, if successful, will secure the country's most successful opposition party a seventh elected seat in Parliament, not counting the additional two Non-Constituency Member of Parliament (NCMP) posts it already has.
Lee, an in-house trainer at a financial institution, last contested the Punggol East ward at the 2011 General Election. She has been with the party for six years and has held various posts including president of the youth wing and is its current deputy webmaster. Full story
