SINGAPORE: Newly elected MP for Marine Parade GRC Tin Pei Ling has resigned from accounting firm Ernst & Young.
She revealed this in her latest post on FaceBook.
The 27-year-old, who was the youngest PAP candidate fielded at the General Election, said she wants to focus on her responsibilities in MacPherson and Marine Parade GRC.
When asked if this means she will be a full-time MP, Ms Tin told Channel NewsAsia that she is keeping her options open.
But for now, she would also like to do some community work with voluntary welfare organisations involving youths and the elderly.
In her FaceBook post, Ms Tin said "I have now been on the ground in MacPherson for over two months. MacPherson has a large number of elderly and poorer households. I feel strongly for them. They require and deserve more help and attention, and there is still much that can be done for them. I have decided to spend more time on the ground, to better serve the needs of residents, and to implement my plans for MacPherson.
"I will consider my longer-term career plans in the future, but fulfilling my duties to the residents of MacPherson will remain my first and utmost priority".
Ms Tin has been with Ernst and Young for four years.
Her last held position was as a Senior Consultant.

she wants to fulfill her duties with madperson?

Bad choice, hard to find another a good job esp when you are with the wrong side.
-
Her MP job pays 4 times more than her full time job.
Not too hard a decision to make imho.

Good move....the other MPs should follow suit. Anyway, her husband must be earning at least $300,000 a year....so no problem. I'd give her a chance and see what she can do for macpherson.

Tin Pei Ling – Dylis Boey- Hri Kumar and her resignation
June 2nd, 2011 | TEMASEK REVIEWShe worked for Dylis Boey who is Hri Kumar’s wife until her resignation. She got the job thru her PAP work and nothing to do with merit. This is someone who thrives on networking and contacts. She also found her husband in a similar way. She is no expert in business and her brief does not include providing consultancy of any substance. Colleagues of E&Y are not familiar with having provided any consultancy to any kopi tiam which I understand that Ms Tin is comfortable with. The fact that she gave a false declaration does not put her in an organisation of that outlook in a comfortable position.
Her antics and the videos have seriously embarrassed the firm. Consultancy firms such as those depend heavily on perception and image and more than a fair share of appearing professional like. She has become a liability.
To the PAP, they need to rebuild her image from the ground up. Gaining employment thru PAP contacts does not augur well with the population especially when PAP keeps telling the world that they seek out the best.
Many of us know of kids from well known families, born with the silver spoon that went out in the world and did not wish to use their family name to seek employment.
I understand that Ms Boey is particularly embarrassed. I am sure her well brother who is well known fashion icon Daniel Boey must have been horrified by the Ah Lian hat and outfit that made the video the most popular for a long while.
This resignation to her minders is the first step towards re-building her image. I don’t think that she will succeed and surprisingly I her minders are in a similar frame of mind.

It is reported she will still be a part time MP even though she resigned from her day job.
So that means MPS once a week?

Really? Why p/t? Rumours say she has been asked to resign rather than of her own accord. Wah who's telling the truth now?
-
She resigned to improve her image so that in 2016 GE, PAP will still field her as a candidate.

she will be busy forging good ties with all of our ministers and hopefully with her good relationship with the ministers she can get promoted beyond just a MP
