Gordon Lim
Born: 1965

Gordon is presently a sales supervisor with a leading wine and spirits company in Singapore. He is a graduate of SHATEC and has worked in the food and beverage departments in various hotels, rising to the rank of captain senior operations manager.

He grew up and lived in the Upper Serangoon area for a good 40 years. Seeing how the residents in Hougang had stood up for their political beliefs, he decided to contribute to the opposition cause. The natural choice for him was the Workers' Party and he joined in 2006, with the blessings of his family.

Gordon believes that every journey begins with a single step and that there are no short cuts to success. In order for our nation to be successful and progress into the future, there must be a system of checks and balances. "You need two hands to clap and it does not matter if you are ruling or opposition party - we are all Singaporeans."

He is married with four daughters.
