In July 2023, both Cheng and Tan Chuan-Jin resigned as a member of People's Action Party (PAP). Cheng resigned as her seat as Member of Parliament (MP) and as a member of People's Action Party (PAP) on 17 July 2023 while Tan resigned his seat as Member of Parliament (MP), Speaker of the Parliament and as a member of People's Action Party (PAP) on 17 July 2023.

Education

Cheng studied at Bukit Panjang Government High School and Anglo-Chinese Junior College, and graduated from the National University of Singapore with a Bachelor of Arts degree. She subsequently went on to complete a Master of Applied Finance degree at Macquarie University.[1]

Career

Political career

Prior to entering politics, Cheng had 12 years of grassroots experience, helping out with the governing People's Action Party with its Meet-the-People Sessions (MPS) at the Bukit Panjang Branch.[2]

Cheng made her political debut in the 2015 general election as part of a five-member PAP team contesting in Tampines GRC and won. She was subsequently elected as the Member of Parliament (MP) representing the Tampines East division of Tampines GRC.[3] She was also appointed Deputy District Advisor in the PAP Women's Wing in 2016.[4]

On 17 July 2023, Cheng resigned her MP position and from PAP.[5] During a press conference, Prime Minister and PAP's Secretary-General Lee Hsien Loong confirmed that Cheng and fellow MP, Tan Chuan-Jin who is married, were having an affair since at least 2020 which resulted in their resignation from the party.[6] In a statement, Lee responded to their resignation letters that their resignations were "necessary" to "maintain the high standards of propriety and personal conduct which the PAP has upheld all these years."[7][8]

Business career

Cheng has been serving as Deputy Chief Executive Officer of Hai Leck Holdings since 2012.[1]

She is also a board member in Allied Construction, Hai Leck Engineering, Enzo Investment, Hai Leck Development, Hai Leck Holdings and Cheng Capital Holdings.[9]

Personal life

Cheng is the daughter of Cheng Buck Poh, the founder and Executive Chairman of Hai Leck Holdings. She has three siblings.[10][11]

On 17 July 2023, it was revealed by Lee Hsien Loong that Cheng, who was not married, had an extramarital affair with fellow MP and Speaker of Parliament Tan Chuan-Jin since at least November 2020,[12] which prompted their resignations from Parliament and the PAP on the same day.[13]
