Delete Nice resume but a neighborhood council and the other jobs don't quite claim notability. Reywas92^Talk 23:36, 17 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Though a "neighborhood council" chairman in Singapore is equivalent to a mayor due to the size of the country, the person is not a key political player with consequential impact to the country. PenulisHantu (talk) 00:13, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Singapore's status as a city-state does not reify its neighbourhood councils into "provincial/state" governments for the purposes of WP:NPOL #1 — it's still a local layer of government, where the notability test is the ability to write a substantive and very well sourced article that contextualizes the person's political importance. But that's not what this is doing: it's basically a prosified résumé, single-sourced to a glancing namecheck of his existence on one page of a book about somebody else. That's not how you show that a politician is notable enough for a Wikipedia article. Bearcat (talk) 02:28, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Non-notable local politician. LefcentrerightTalk (plz ping) 11:37, 19 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete no actual claim to notability. The fact that Singapore is a city state does not make community council members "first level sub-national legislators".John Pack Lambert (talk) 23:08, 20 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
