Well, the nation (or at least your constituency) thank you for your services.

You can now proceed to Phase 2C registration.

Hi all,


I’m sure this has been asked and answered many times but I can’t seem to find the answer.

We live in the West Coast GRC and my husband volunteers with the Tanjong Pagar GRC. It came to our attention that this would entitle him to register our children in phase 2B. My question is: will our kids be eligible for phase 2B for schools that fall under the West Coast GRC or the Tanjong Pagar GRC? Also, how do I find out which schools fall under each GRC?

Thanks!

Restricted to schools in the constituency where you live.

apart from the qualifying conditions that you should already be aware,


please ask your CD/CM. They will have the complete list of sch in each GRC/SMC.
(the list changes every few years.... )

Joined the RC and was told to start from scratch as observer though i am already EM in both committies... now serving close to 3 mths, still not EM yet.


not sure if i was short change...

Any views? Thanks in advance..

Since it all about volunteer work,

Get your network expanded, Know more people - then Ask if you can join the RC subsequently.

Imagine you are the chairman, would you be more comfortable of a existing active volunteer in another committee joining you or a total stranger?

hi, I have been confirmed as an executive member in Commty Sports Committee and Commty Welfare & Development Committee.

Based on the sharings found in this thread, these 2 involvement does not qualify me as a active community leader for Phase 2B? Can anyone help to confirm this?

Thank you in advance.

Remember the portal opens up in mid May every year.


you need to clock 2 years EM by the year you are registering.

Please calculate your timeline properly.

It is not a given that a RC must convert observers to EM within certain timeframe, sometimes need to have vacancies in the Exco or the Exco want to gauge the observer's commitment level before making to decision to convert.


I suggest that since you are EM in CSC and CDWF, why not take initiative to organise events for the RC which utilise your current contacts. It will help your cause to justify conversion to EM when the opportunity arises.

Maybe also can check with the chairman if there are programs you can help to drive for the RC?

The more active you are, the more people take notice of you. That's my take.

the schools change every few years due to the electoral boundaries re-drawn.

Ask your CM, he/she confirm have the list of sch in your SMC/GRC.
