Workers’ Party (WP) leader Kenneth Foo was one of 20 NSmen who were presented with the NSman of the Year award on Singapore Armed Forces Day (SAF) on Wednesday (July 1), according to the party’s chief Pritam Singh.
In posts on social media on Thursday, Singh said Foo was recognised for his “excellent national service performance and contributions”, adding that he “richly deserved” the title.
“Thank you for serving as a role model for so many of us, and anyone in uniform. Well done and congratulations! Majulah Singapura!”
Foo, who is WP’s deputy organising secretary, contested in the newly established Tampines Changkat SMC at the 2025 General Election, garnering 43.83 per cent of valid votes and losing to the People Action Party’s Desmond Choo.
Foo works as head of governance and risk at the Singapore Cancer Society. In a LinkedIn post on Thursday, he said SAF Day celebrates the commitment of national servicemen to Singapore’s defence, and allows them to reflect on the purpose of what they do and to show appreciation to people who supported them.
