Vision for Singapore
Faisal's vision for Singapore is for a more caring, gracious and inclusive society. To achieve this, he envisions a future where our Parliament will have well-balanced representation - a “First World Parliament” which embraces the values of “Unity in Diversity”.
Philosophy and Passions
Family lies at the heart of Faisal’s life. He firmly believes that the family is the foundation of any nation — and that strong, empowered families are key to a stronger society. To support the development of functional and resilient families, public policies must promote work-life balance. This enables each family member to meet their physical, psychological, emotional, and spiritual needs, thereby reinforcing the family unit as a whole.
What Faisal enjoys most about his work in the party is the opportunity to collaborate with like-minded individuals from diverse backgrounds, all united by a shared commitment to serve fellow Singaporeans with compassion, dedication, and sincerity.
