The CEO of local recycling and waste management firm Wah & Hua has been making her presence felt in East Coast GRC, a constituency anchored by Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat.
A long-time PAP volunteer of nearly two decades, Ms Tan became active in the party’s Fengshan ward towards the end of last year, according to media reports. Previously, she was involved in the Hong Kah North, represented by Senior Minister of State Amy Khor.
Ms Tan was first spotted at a party outreach event in Fengshan last November, distributing PAP teddy bears alongside MP Cheryl Chan. Since then, she has regularly appeared at community engagements with Ms Chan.
Last weekend, she was seen with the five East Coast GRC MPs on a float greeting residents during the Chingay parade in the heartlands.
Ms Tan has been the CEO of Wah & Hua since 2000. She oversaw the sale of a majority stake to integrated waste management firm Blue Planet Environmental Solutions, and also created a joint venture with environmental and energy firm China Tianying to develop a waste-to-energy plant.
