SINGAPORE : The National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) says it is pleased that someone from the labour movement has been selected as a Nominated Member of Parliament.

Ms Cham Hui Fong is the seventh representative from the movement since 1992 to be made NMP.

NTUC says it chose Ms Cham following close consultations and deliberations by a nominations committee headed by NTUC President John De Payva.

And it is confident she will continue to speak up for the interests of workers and Singaporeans over a wide range of issues as previous NMPs from the labour movement did. - CNA /ls
