Tampines Group Representation Constituency
Tampines Group Representation Constituency is a five-member Group Representation Constituency in the eastern region of Singapore. The GRC encompasses Tampines with five sub-constituencies, namely Tampines East, Tampines West, Tampines Central, Tampines North and Tampines Changkat. The electoral boundaries remained unchanged between the 2001 elections until early 2020 when its boundaries were redrawn to include Tampines retail park from the neighbouring Pasir Ris–Punggol GRC. The GRC has faced a contest in every general election except 1997, in which the National Solidarity Party was disqualified. In the 2001 and 2006 general elections, the PAP's opponent was the Singapore Democratic Alliance.
Tampines GRC is led by both Social and Family Development Minister, Second Health Minister Masagos Zulkifli with Senior Minister of State from the Ministry of Health Dr Koh Poh Koon where Koh was being move from Ang Mo Kio GRC after his Yio Chu Kang Division is being crafted out to be a SMC for the 2020 General Election.

On May 2016, Heng Swee Keat was incapacitated due to a stroke. His condition was reported to be stable but he remained in the hospital's intensive care unit until 25 June 2016. His fellow MPs assisted to oversee his Tampines Central ward with the former MP Sin Boon Ann returning to help until his discharge. Also, previously Heng Swee Keat was the anchor minister until he was transferred to nearby East Coast GRC in 2020.
Following the release of the EBRC redrawing exercise report, the constituency will be expanded to include the Tampines Wafer Fab Park and the entire Tampines North Industrial Estate.Members of Parliament
