SMU Assistant Law Professor Eugene Tan predicts that Png Eng Huat from the Workers' Party can garner between 55 to 60% of the votes during the by-election, less than the 64.8% received by WP in the last General Election. He commented that some of the recent incidents, such as the rumours about ex-Hougang MP Yaw Shin Leong and Poh Lee Guan's participation in the coming by-election, as well as resignation of Indian member Sajeev, all indicated that problems might be looming within the Workers' Party.
