Hence I actually went to the RC and the chairman mentioned I can join their RC. Any advise on this?

Define \"join\".
Anybody can join the RC and their activities, regardless of place of abode.
However, only the Executive Committee is eligible for the recommendation letter. And Ex Co members are typically living in the constituency.

All confirmed members of RC (Exec Member or GRL) are eligible for the P2B priority, not just ExCo members. This point has been clarified many times before. ExCo members are just GRL holding an appt to serve the RC with all members' support.

To qualify as active community leaders, the People’s Association (PA) requires the community leaders to serve actively in these Committees for at least one year prior to the P1 registration exercise.

Maybe ExCo wasn't the right term, but you will have to be a committee member in the Residents' Committee, and not just a member participating in the RC activities.

Of course members of RC refers to Executive Members, not observers who are not confirmed members. There is no such thing as members participating in RC activities but are not members, but probably block rep or whatever they call them. The point here is one need not be in ExCo. I've served as Secretary for 1 term and vice-chair in RC for 2 terms, so pretty sure of the details. Cheers!

Thanks mommyfel, floppy and timtim.


Can I say that after being observer and being active for 1 year, we will automatically upgrade to confirmed members of RC? Do we have a letter or chairman will announce that we have become a confirmed member of RC?

Is there a quota to be a confirmed member of RC?

After observer (period depends), you will become confirmed members, not after 1 yr of service. Quota is 30 if no change by PA. I can't really recall if there's a letter but Chairman will usually announce during meeting and recorded in minutes of meeting.

Hi Pinkytann,

Yes, when you are been confirmed by your RC Chairman, you will receive a letter informing your appointment. You will also receive your Grassroot membership plus your Passioncard.

If you did not receive all the above, it means that you are not being confirm yet. Check with your RC Chairman on your application.

Dear all, an Important circular was issued by CED on 11 APR 14 regarding changes to P1 registration priority schemes for GRLs.


There are two important changes:

1) Min service requirement will be increased from 1yr to 2years (period served as observer do not count)

2) GRLs/District Councillors are only eligble for schools in the GRC or SMC they reside;

i.e. e.g. if you stay in Tampines GRC, but you serve in our CCMC, the priority scheme will only allow u to qualify for schools in Tampines GRC.

The changes will take effect starting from the 2016 P1 registration exercise for admission to P1 2017.

Members who wish to be eligible for the 2016 P1 registration must be appointed by latest 30 June 14 to qualify for min 2 years service criterion.
