Two weeks after I gave birth. You know, in Asian culture, there's a one month confinement. So I basically, actually a few days after giving birth, I had to go out and start training my walking. Because by the second, because two weeks later after I gave birth, I had to start campaigning because general was just around the corner. I had to start campaigning. And so I recall that my firstborn,

Every day he looks different because there's a rapid growth period. And I remember after general election when the dust has settled, I came back and I look at him also, oh my God, he has grown so much. What did I miss out? So it was quite emotional. And then of course now they are a bit older.

Residents have been very kind and understanding and they continue to place their trust in me and I'm grateful. At work, my colleagues and my bosses have also been appreciative of my other roles and they gave me the flexibility. I'm grateful. Of course, at home, I've got my family, my parents, my husband, and friends as well who are willing to step in when I have to go out and do my part.

So, it's a whole ecosystem of support. I recognise that not everyone enjoys the same level of support. And so, actually... This thing about how can we better support women to achieve their aspirations actually became one of the causes that I've been fighting for or talking about since that second general election, since 2015, since becoming a mother.

Yeah, actually I'm passionate about a range of issues and causes. When I was in my 20s, when I was first fielded, I was very passionate and I continue to be passionate about elderly issues as well as youth because I've always been.

a youth volunteer and I believe in youth development mental health mental wellness being such a core part of issue that youth are concerned about so that naturally is something that I'm concerned about as well and I've always been interested in mental health that's why I chose psychology right Then seniors, my parents are aging.

As the only child, I have to think about how I can support them, how I can care for them. And I also start to think about how I would like to live my life when I eventually grow old and become an elderly myself. So that's from the personal point of view. But my constituency, one in three are aged 60 and above. So I have a fairly significant population of seniors who are under my care.
