The People’s Action Party (PAP) candidate for the upcoming Bukit Batok by-election, Murali Pillai, revealed a $1.9 million proposal to upgrade a precinct in the area on Sunday (24 April).
Speaking to reporters at the PAP Bukit Batok Branch, the 47-year-old lawyer said the proposed upgrading will include a new 3-Generation Park and covered linkways in the precinct of Blocks 140 to 149 at Bukit Batok West Avenue 4.
He said the park will be built with grandparents in mind and will feature a playground as well as an exercise area. “It will allow grandparents to exercise while the children can play at the playground. Aside from the park, we want to improve a number of sheltered linkways that will connect 17 blocks to a shopping centre and market,” he added.
Murali is expected to go to the polls against the Singapore Democratic Party’s candidate, Dr Chee Soon Juan, on 7 May.
The Bukit Batok by-election was called after the ward’s Member of Parliament, David Ong, stepped down in March following a “personal indiscretion”.

Murali, a PAP candidate for Aljunied GRC in the last General Election, said that he and his grassroots leaders have been getting feedback from residents about the precinct, which was selected to undergo the Neighbourhood Renewal Programme in 2015.
Residents were surveyed by a working group formed under the Jurong-Clementi Town Council (JRTC) late last year to obtain their views on how the neighbourhood could be enhanced. A three-day exhibition, starting Friday (22 April), was also held to obtain further input from residents.
Murali, who attended the exhibition on Sunday along with Deputy Prime Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam and other grassroots leaders, added that he is seeking the mandate of the residents from the area in the upcoming by-election so that the plans can be carried out.
He said that other plans for the area will be revealed in due course before Nomination Day on 27 April.
When asked about his preparations for nomination day, Murali said he had been getting advice from friends and residents to have enough rest. “I’ve also been asked to take some ginseng to help me last through this period,” he said.
