SERANGOON Garden Member of Parliament Lim Hwee Hua was at the
launch of a pledge by hawkers at Chomp Chomp food centre not to
raise prices, when she was stopped by heckler.
The man, who only wanted to be known as Mr Hum, accused her of
making her rounds only during election time. She later told
reporters that she makes visits to residents in the area, covering
about 150 HDB units or 100 private households once every two to
three weeks.
Mrs Lim had been at the food centre on Wednesday night,
presenting labels to the 33 food stalls who have agreed to maintain
food prices for six months. This is the third cluster of food
stalls in the Serangoon area to make the pledge.
