GE2025 reserve candidate Firdaus Daud deployed to Faishal Ibrahim’s former Kembangan ward
This comes about a month after Faishal’s resignation from political office, Parliament and the PAP.
The 2025 General Election PAP reserve candidate, Ahmad Firdaus Daud, has been assigned to take over former acting minister-in-charge of Muslim affairs Faishal Ibrahim's grassroots responsibilities in Kembangan ward. This was revealed by Speaker of Parliament Seah Kian Peng on August 28, in response to inquiries from the ST. Firdaus, who has already met the group representation constituency's other MPs and key grassroots leaders, will be the ward's second grassroots adviser upon his appointment on September 1.
Seah, an MP for Marine Parade-Braddell Heights GRC, which includes Kembangan, emphasized that Firdaus's addition will "certainly strengthen the team" and that his presence will be crucial in addressing matters concerning the Malay/Muslim community in the area.
