Fellowship over golf

The Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC Citizens’ Consultative Committees jointly organised the annual GRC Golf Fellowship on 8 November 2009 at the Raffles Country Club. The Golf Fellowship brings residents, grassroots leaders and the MPs together for a day of interaction whilst pitting their golfing skills against one another in friendly competition.

136 residents and grassroots leaders of Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC participated in the event. Joining them were Guest-of-Honour, Mr Wong Kan Seng, DPM and Minister for Home Affairs, and Member of Parliament (MP) for Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC, Dr Ng Eng Hen, Minister for Education and Second Minister for Defence and MP for Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC, and Mayor Zainudin Nordin of the Central Singapore District and MP for Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC.

Many of the golfers were enthusiastically aiming to win the “Hole-in-One’ prize of a BMW car kindly sponsored by Performance Motors. But none was lucky enough. After a day of golf, the golfers were invited to a sumptuous dinner at the Shanshui Palace at the Club, and it was a night filled with laughter and fun, with the golfers sharing their experiences at the golf course. The Thomson CC Jazz Band provided entertainment for the dinner. The other two MPs for Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC, Mr Hri Kumar Nair and Mrs Josephine Teo, also joined in the dinner.
