:''Not to be confused with the pre-independence era ward in Punggol and Hougang areas called the Punggol Member Constituency which was formed prior to 1959 general elections by carving out a portion of the then-defunct Punggol-Tampines SMC, which lasted until prior to 1991 general elections when that ward was absorbed into the then defunct Cheng San GRC.'' Punggol East Single Member Constituency ((中国語:榜鹅东单选区); (マレー語:Kawasan Undi Perseorangan Punggol East); (タミル語:பொங்கோல் ஈஸ்ட் தனித்தொகுதி)) is a Single Member Constituency located in the north-eastern area of Singapore. The ward covers the eastern area of Sengkang. This ward has been carved out during the 2011's General Election and was formerly a ward from the Pasir Ris-Punggol GRC. On 12 December 2012, then MP for Punggol East SMC, Michael Palmer resigned after an extramarital affair was revealed. A by-election was held on 26 January 2013, and Lee Li Lian of the Workers' Party was elected as MP.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=WP's Lee wins Punggol East by-election )〕 During the 2015 general elections, PAP's Charles Chong won in Punggol East SMC, replacing Lee Li Lian as MP for the constituency. ==2011 general election== In the 2011 general elections, the constituency saw a 3-cornered contest, the only such in the election; this phenomenon was last seen in the 2001 general elections in the then Bukit Timah SMC. Desmond Lim of the Singapore Democratic Alliance secured a mere 4.45% of the votes in Punggol East SMC, against PAP's Michael Palmer and Workers' Party's Lee Li Lian. This is the lowest percentage of votes a candidate has garnered in the 2011's General Election. As a result, he was the only candidate of the island-wide election to have his election deposit forfeited. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Punggol East Single Member Constituency」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
