:''Not to be confused with the defunct ward called Tanjong Pagar Single Member Constituency'' Tanjong Pagar Group Representation Constituency ((中国語:丹戎巴葛集选区); (マレー語:Kawasan Undi Perwakilan Berkumpulan Tanjong Pagar); (タミル語:தஞ்சோங் பகார் குழுத்தொகுதி)) is currently a five-member Group Representation Constituency (GRC) in central and western Singapore Tanjong Pagar GRC was originally led by former Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew who was Prime Minister from 1959 to 1990. Subsequently, he held the positions of Senior Minister from 1990 to 2004 and Minister Mentor from 2004 to 2011. Mr Lee retired from the Cabinet in 2011, but remained the leading Member of Parliament (MP) for Tanjong Pagar GRC until 23 March 2015 when he died at Singapore General Hospital. Tanjong Pagar GRC has been held by the People's Action Party since 1991, with a walkover victory when it was originally led by former Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew. Its first contest was in 2015, led by Singaporeans First, including Tan Jee Say and Ang Yong Guan. Tanjong Pagar consists of five divisions, namely Buona Vista, Queenstown, Moulmein-Cairnhill, Tanjong Pagar-Tiong Bahru and Henderson-Dawson. The constituency consists of the areas of Tanjong Pagar, Queenstown, Tiong Bahru, Tanglin, Orchard Road, Bukit Merah, Buona Vista, Stevens, Newton, Little India, Pek Kio, Bukit Timah and Novena. ==History== The GRCs had previously changed divisions as follows: *1991 - Absorbed all of the Tiong Bahru GRC, Tanjong Pagar SMC and Telok Blangah SMC *1997 - Absorbed Brickworks GRC (Queenstown & Brickworks), Buona Vista SMC and Leng Kee SMC & split off Telok Blangah into West Coast GRC *2001 - Absorbed Kreta Ayer-Tanglin GRC (Tanglin-Cairnhill & Moulmein) & split off Buona Vista into the new Holland-Bukit Panjang GRC *2006 - No change except shrinking parts of Holland-Bukit Panjang GRC transferred to Tanjong Pagar GRC. *2011 - Absorbed Holland-Bukit Timah GRC (Buona Vista) & Jalan Besar GRC (Kreta Ayer-Kim Seng), split off Moulmein part into Moulmein-Kallang GRC and Radin Mas part into Radin Mas SMC. Tiong Bahru was merged into Tanjong Pagar. *2015 - A swap between Moulmein-Kallang GRC/Jalan Besar GRC and Tanjong Pagar GRC. In return, Moulmein goes back to Tanjong Pagar GRC while Kreta Ayer-Kim Seng relocates back to Jalan Besar GRC. Previous Members of Parliament for the GRCs usually cut their teeth of the constituencies and became ministers before moving on to the new GRC: *1991 - 1997: Lim Hng Kiang (became West Coast GRC) *1997 - 2001: Lim Swee Say (became East Coast GRC) *2001 - 2006: Khaw Boon Wan (became Sembawang GRC) *2006 - 2011: Lui Tuck Yew (became Moulmein-Kallang GRC) In GE 2011, a group of independents led by Ng Teck Siong were disqualified from contesting Tanjong Pagar GRC against the PAP team as they submitted nomination papers 35 seconds late. 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「Tanjong Pagar Group Representation Constituency」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
