Concerns have remained about the potential lack of youth voices within the CEC, with most of the nominees being above 40 years old.
SINGAPORE: The Progress Singapore Party may fill its Central Executive Committee with a host of new faces, at the party’s internal leadership conference next week if rumours swirling online are to be believed.
The remaining six members of the current CEC are Peggie Chua, Ang Yong Guan, Harish Pillay, Muhammad Taufik Bin Supan, Phang Yew Huat, Wendy Low and Jess Chua. The list also includes eight new nominees: Nadarajan Loganathan, A’bas Bin Kasmani, Jeffrey Khoo, Lim Cher Hong, Kevin Chua, Jonathan Tee, Sarif Bin Johari, and Chika Tan.
The majority of nominees are in their 50s, with some in their 60s. Party founder and chairman Dr Tan Cheng Bock turns 83 next month while secretary-general Francis Yuen, 73, is just ten years younger.
