Perspective
Prior to the 2011 general election, the constituency was carved out of Hong Kah Group Representation Constituency (GRC) as a SMC; it had previously been a division in said GRC.[1] Hong Kah GRC was abolished at the same time in favour of Chua Chu Kang GRC.[2] Amy Khor, the incumbent Member of Parliament (MP) for the GRC division, sought reelection in the SMC as the candidate for the governing People's Action Party (PAP); she won 70.61% of the vote against Sin Kek Tong, the chairman of the Singapore People's Party (SPP).[1][3] She went on to win an increased 74.76% of the vote in 2015 against Ravi Philemon, also from the SPP.[1][4]
In 2020, the constituency lost its Jurong West section to West Coast and Chua Chu Kang GRCs; in return, it received the remainder of Tengah from Chua Chu Kang GRC.[5] Khor won reelection against Gigene Wong from the Progress Singapore Party (PSP) with a decreased 60.99% of the vote.[1][6]
In 2025, the constituency was dissolved. The entirety of Tengah was returned to Chua Chu Kang GRC;[7] the remaining estates in Bukit Batok West, alongside Bukit Batok and Yuhua SMCs, were merged with part of the defunct Jurong GRC to form Jurong East–Bukit Batok GRC.[8]
