My Nee Soon residents,
The world situation has changed fast.
We have a global trade war started by the US.
The US has imposed tariffs on many countries. Singapore was hit with 10%.
Now, the US has paused the tariffs until 8 July 2025. There is a lot of uncertainty. Global growth is likely to slow. No one knows what will happen on 8 July 2025. When the pause ends, will tariffs be reimposed?
Prime Minister Lawrence Wong has said it clearly: More shocks are coming. We must brace ourselves.
Exports may slow, demand may fall. Investments will be affected.
Companies may face tough times. Jobs may be at risk.
We cannot control what happens in Washington or Beijing, or anywhere else in the world.
But we can control how we respond.
We have gone through many crises.
With steadiness.
With unity and discipline. We’ve done it before.
We can do it again.
We will roll out plans to deal with the economic situation.
We are not the biggest country. But we are respected, because we stay calm. We stay honest. We stay capable. We stay united. That is why investors trust us.
That is what protects our future. Let us hold on to what matters—our good governance, our political stability, our harmony, our unity.
A society where race, language or religion does not divide us.
In Nee Soon, Residents First
While we deal with national issues, your MPs will continue to put Residents First. We will do our best to serve you. And we will continue to improve facilities in Nee Soon.
We have made Nee Soon A Home with A Heart. We will continue with many programmes that we have to help Nee Soon Residents.
This manifesto shows what facilities have been built— roads, parks, multi-purpose hubs, sports facilities, schools, and services.
Kita kini berdepan dengan perang perdagangan global yang dimulakan oleh Amerika Syarikat.
Amerika telah mengenakan tarif ke atas banyak negara. Singapura dikenakan tarif 10%.
Kini, Amerika telah menjedakan tarif tersebut sehingga 8 Julai 2025. Terdapat banyak ketidakpastian. Pertumbuhan global mungkin akan perlahan. Tiada siapa yang tahu apa yang akan berlaku pada 8 Julai 2025. Apabila jeda tamat, adakah tarif akan dikenakan semula?
Perdana Menteri Lawrence Wong telah pun menyebutnya dengan jelas: Lebih banyak kejutan dijangkakan. Kita mesti kuatkan diri kita.
Eksport mungkin perlahan, permintaan mungkin jatuh. Pelaburan akan terjejas.
Syarikat mungkin menghadapi masa yang sukar. Pekerjaan mungkin berisiko.
Kita tidak boleh mengawal apa yang berlaku di Washington atau Beijing, atau di mana-mana sahaja di dunia.
Tetapi kita boleh mengawal tindak balas kita.
Kita telah mengharungi banyak krisis.
Dengan keteguhan.
Dengan perpaduan dan disiplin. Kita telah mengharunginya sebelum ini.
Kita boleh melakukannya lagi.
Kami akan melancarkan rancangan untuk menangani keadaan ekonomi ini.
Kita bukan negara terbesar. Tetapi kita dihormati, kerana kita kekal tenang. Kita kekal jujur. Kita kekal berupaya. Kita kekal bersatu. Itulah sebabnya pelabur percaya kepada kita.
Itulah yang melindungi masa depan kita. Marilah kita berpegang kepada apa yang penting—tadbir urus kita yang baik, kestabilan politik kita, keharmonian kita, perpaduan kita.
Masyarakat di mana bangsa, bahasa atau agama tidak memecahbelahkan kita.
Di Nee Soon, Penduduk Dahulu
Sedang kami menangani isu negara, Anggota Parlimen anda akan terus mengutamakan Penduduk Dahulu. Kami akan melakukan yang terbaik untuk berkhidmat kepada anda. Dan kami akan terus menambah baik kemudahan di Nee Soon.
Kami telah menjadikan Nee Soon Kediaman Berhati Ihsan. Kami akan teruskan dengan banyak program lagi untuk membantu Penduduk Nee Soon.
Manifesto ini memaparkan kemudahan yang telah dibina—jalan raya, taman, hab serba guna, kemudahan sukan, sekolah dan perkhidmatan.
Dan dengan sokongan anda, kami akan melakukan lebih banyak lagi.
Nee Soon is more than a Town— it is a Home built on strong community spirit. In the next five years, we will make Nee Soon more connected, vibrant, and inclusive.
义顺不仅仅是一个市镇——这是一个靠着坚 固社区精神建立起来的家园。下来五年，我
们将把义顺打造得更加四通八达、充满活力 且有包容性。
Nee Soon adalah lebih daripada sebuah Bandar—ia adalah
Kediaman yang dibina atas semangat kemasyarakatan yang kuat. Dalam tempoh lima tahun akan datang, kami akan menjadikan
Nee Soon lebih terhubung, bersemangat, dan inklusif.
For families, we will increase childcare facilities.
For seniors, we will expand eldercare services and build more barrier-free spaces.
And for families in need, we will assist as we have done in the last five years.
Nee Soon now has many modern amenities.
It is the healthcare hub of the North: Two hospitals, two polyclinics, and multiple active ageing centres.
Iconic projects continue to shape our town, ensuring a better quality of life for all.
When completed, the Integrated Hub, Chong Pang City, will house a new Community Club, Sports Facilities, Hawker Centre, Market, Retail Shops and Enrichment Outlets.
We have more plans.
There will be improved access to key transport nodes, including the North-South Corridor.
There will be more sheltered linkways.
We will refresh homes and public spaces.
With your support, we can turn these plans into reality. We can build a better Nee Soon—together.
Over the past five years, the Government has introduced 12 Budgets to protect jobs, stabilise the economy, and support families in managing rising costs.
过去五年，政府推出了12个预算案，来保护国人的工作、使经济稳定， 并支持家庭应对上涨的生活费。
Sepanjang lima tahun yang lalu, Pemerintah telah memperkenalkan 12 Belanjawan untuk melindungi pekerjaan, menstabilkan ekonomi, dan membantu keluarga-keluarga dalam menguruskan peningkatan kos. கடந்த
The GST increase was necessary to fund essential services like healthcare and education in the coming years.
However, the Government has ensured that most Singaporeans will receive more in Government support than they pay in GST. For lower- and middle-income families, the Assurance Package in Budget 2025 will offset the GST increase for the next 10 years. Thanks to cash payouts, U-Save rebates, and CDC vouchers, many families will more than recover the extra GST they pay.
Real support is given for everyday expenses while laying the foundation for a stronger, more secure future.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, we drew on $52 billion from past reserves to help Singaporeans through the crisis. Inflation and global challenges have driven up prices. The Government has responded with new support.
Rising costs affect each of us differently. Budget 2025 has been designed to provide direct, targeted help for everyone—from young couples and families with school-going children to seniors managing their daily expenses.
For families, support is given for daily living costs. A family in a 3-room flat can expect around $3,700 in assistance, while those in a 4-room flat will receive about $2,900. Parents will also benefit from lower preschool fees and extra support for their children’s education. Working adults will receive SG60 credits and tax rebates, while seniors will get additional assistance with healthcare and living costs.

He has focused on supporting seniors and underprivileged young people.

These challenges built his resilience and shaped his belief that all young people—regardless of background—deserve opportunities to succeed and give back.
His background and upbringing have shown Jackson that if he puts his heart into anything he does, it will show results. It takes hard work, ability and willingness to listen and a positive attitude to connect with people.
