The Bukit Gombak Single Member Constituency[a] is a single-member constituency (SMC) situated in western Singapore. Established in 2025, it is managed by Chua Chu Kang Town Council (CCKTC). The current Member of Parliament (MP) for the constituency is Low Yen Ling from the People's Action Party (PAP).
Electoral history
[edit]
In the leadup to the 2025 general election, Bukit Gombak SMC was recreated from Chua Chu Kang GRC, comprising estates in Bukit Gombak and Hillview. The recreation was officially attributed to population growth in Tengah, which had been absorbed by the same GRC, and a goal of retaining the same seat count in GRCs.[2][3]
The PAP fielded Low Yen Ling, the former MP for the Bukit Gombak division of Chua Chu Kang GRC, to stand for reelection in the SMC.[4] She defeated Harish Pillay from the Progress Singapore Party (PSP) with 75.81% of the vote.[5][6]
