History
Leading up to the 2020 general election, Punggol West SMC was carved out of Pasir Ris–Punggol GRC. It had previously been a division in said GRC.[2]
At the same election, Tan Chen Chen from the Workers' Party (WP) contested the SMC against Sun Xueling, the previous Member of Parliament (MP) for the Punggol West division.[3] Sun won with 60.98% of the vote.[4]
For the 2025 general election, the SMC was absorbed into Punggol GRC as a division after one term as its own constituency.[5]
