The Pasir Ris–Changi Group Representation Constituency is a four-member group representation constituency (GRC) in the eastern region of Singapore. It has four divisions: Changi, Pasir Ris Central, Pasir Ris East, and Pasir Ris West, managed by Pasir Ris–Changi Town Council. The current Members of Parliament (MPs) for the constituency are Indranee Rajah, Valerie Lee, Sharael Taha and Desmond Tan from the governing People's Action Party (PAP).

History

[edit]

Before the 2025 general election, Pasir Ris–Changi GRC was formed with four MPs by merging the Pasir Ris section of the abolished Pasir Ris–Punggol GRC with the estates of Loyang and Flora in East Coast GRC.[1] At the same time, the Punggol section of Pasir Ris–Punggol GRC was merged with Punggol West Single Member Constituency (SMC) to form a new Punggol GRC. The Electoral Boundaries Review Committee (EBRC) claimed that the move was meant to emphasise the identity of Punggol.[2]

On 21 April, the PAP announced that Indranee Rajah would leave Tanjong Pagar GRC to lead a PAP team in Pasir Ris–Changi GRC.[3] On 23 April, Desmond Lim, chairperson of the Singapore Democratic Alliance (SDA), announced an opposing team led by him.[4] The PAP won with 67.68% of the vote.[5][6]
