Presidential Elec 2023 Media Release by Tan Kin Lian 30 July 2023
I submitted my application for a certificate of eligibility for the presidential election on 11 July 2023 through a proxy. I did not collect the form from the election department because I was able to download the form earlier from the website of the election department.

I had also submitted my community declaration earlier through the website. 

Among the four potential candidates, I believe that Mr. Tharman Shanmugaratnam and I meet the full requirements as set out in the constitution. 

I am not sure if the other two potential candidates, Mr. George Goh and Mr. Ng Kok Song, meet the full requirements.  However, I am aware that the Presidential Election Committee has the power to grant waiver for some of the shortfalls. 

I will wait for the decision of the Presidential Election Committee on the final slate of approved candidates before I decide on submitting the nomination paper.
