==Resignation of Palmer as the Speaker and MP==
The by-election was called by President Tony Tan Keng Yam at the advice of Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong after the seat of Punggol East was left vacant when then the incumbent, then Speaker of Parliament Michael Palmer, resigned from his seat due to him having an extramarital affair.
A local tabloid, The New Paper, reported that they received a tip-off on 8 December 2012, in the form of screengrabs of phone messages that the Speaker of Parliament, Michael Palmer was having an extramarital affair. The messages suggested that the two had close relationship and met regularly on Mondays.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://news.asiaone.com/News/Latest%2BNews/Singapore/Story/A1Story20121213-389445.html )〕 The New Paper also stated that they have been in this relationship for a year. On the same Saturday, Palmer met DPM Teo Chee Hean to tender his resignation as speaker and MP. The next day, PM Lee Hsien Loong met Palmer to confirm his resignation.
On 12 December 2012, the PAP called a press conference where Palmer announced that he resigned to "take full responsibility for a grave mistake" for having an improper relationship with a PA staff, Laura Ong. Although Ong did not work under Palmer, Punggol East used to be under the Pasir Ris- Punggol division and Punggol East still works together on constituencies affairs. DPM Teo Chee Hean, at the press conference announced that Mr Teo Ser Luck will be the caretaker MP for Punggol East.
