Controversies

Animal Welfare Criticisms from Childhood Anecdote

During the 2025 Singapore general election campaign, Edward Chia, a candidate for Holland-Bukit Timah GRC, shared a personal anecdote from age 10 in which he bred hamsters and sold them to pet shops for S$3 each, presenting it as an early entrepreneurial endeavor that taught him business basics like . The story appeared in campaign materials distributed on April 25, 2025, framing the activity as a formative experience in responsibility and commerce. The Hamster Society Singapore, a non-profit group, publicly criticized the on the same day, arguing that it irresponsibly normalized unlicensed pet breeding and sales, which have been illegal in since regulations under the Animals and Birds Act prohibit such activities without permits to ensure welfare standards. The group contended that portraying the practice as a "fun fact" or entrepreneurial overlooked welfare issues, such as , inadequate care in mass breeding, and the of animals, potentially encouraging similar behaviors amid rising reports in the country. They emphasized that hamsters, as sentient beings, suffer from impulsive breeding cycles, and Chia's framing contradicted advocacy for ethical pet ownership over profit-driven exploitation. In response on April 26, 2025, Chia clarified that the breeding occurred over two years in the early 1990s as a child's with parental supervision, not a commercial operation, and that he ensured the hamsters' health before sales, viewing it as a lesson in accountability rather than profit. He affirmed support for current laws, noting his parliamentary questions in 2023 on enforcement against illegal pet sellers and advocacy for licensed sources to prevent welfare lapses. Critics, including online commentators, accused the response of evading the anecdote's implications for modern standards, though Chia maintained it reflected pre-digital era norms when such small-scale activities were common among children without regulatory scrutiny. The exchange highlighted tensions between retrospective childhood stories and evolving expectations, with the society urging politicians to model compliance over nostalgia.

Election Campaign Incidents

During the 2025 general election campaign, a draft rally speech prepared for (PAP) candidate Edward Chia drew scrutiny for including a scripted prompt directing a supporter named Farizan to interject with the remark "SDP town council sucks" during a discussion on the (SDP). The draft, intended for a PAP rally on 30 April 2025 at , referenced SDP's performance in the constituency from the 2020 election, where PAP secured 53.74% of the vote against SDP's . This line appeared in paragraph 33 of the document, which had been shared with media outlets prior to the event. Chia overruled the draft following intervention from the PAP's communications team, stating that the scripted interjection did not align with his personal style of campaigning and that media coverage should reflect only the delivered speech. The line was omitted from the final rally delivery, and no public disruption or use of the phrase occurred. Prime Minister , in a separate , emphasized the PAP's preference for unifying approaches over divisive tactics in addressing policy challenges. The incident, reported primarily by independent outlet The Online Citizen—which has faced past scrutiny for its critical stance on PAP policies—highlighted internal campaign scripting practices but did not lead to formal repercussions or alter the PAP's victory in Holland-Bukit Timah GRC, where Chia's team secured 79.29% of the vote on 3 May 2025.

Business Hygiene and Regulatory Scrutiny

Timbre Group, co-founded by Edward Chia in 2010, has operated hawker centres (SEHCs) under Singapore's (NEA) framework, including Park Hawker Centre since its opening in 2020. In August 2025, the company faced public criticism from hawker advocate KF Seetoh over its tenancy agreements and operational practices at Park, including 25-page contracts with clauses imposing fines for minor infractions, mandatory use of proprietary apps that offer customer discounts at hawkers' expense, and a rental model requiring 15% of successful stalls' gross turnover—potentially exceeding S$3,000 monthly—without proportional support for low-performing stalls. Seetoh argued these practices contradicted a 2024 parliamentary motion urging SEHC operators to prioritize hawker amid rising costs, and highlighted double standards in enforcement, such as stricter CCTV monitoring and penalties compared to NEA-managed centres. Timbre Group defended its model on August 26, 2025, stating the gross turnover rent shares economic risks with hawkers, aids security and lost-property recovery, and fines align with standard NEA hygiene and compliance requirements, with no hawker evicted solely for non-payment. The company emphasized investing over S$1 million in renovations and subsidies since 2020, claiming overall compliance with NEA guidelines on hygiene, maintenance, and fair practices. Seetoh rebutted on August 27, asserting persistent high costs and lack of reforms despite the parliamentary directive, urging greater transparency in SEHC performance metrics. As of October 2025, no formal regulatory actions, investigations, or penalties by NEA or other authorities have been reported against Group for these practices, despite public calls for oversight. Chia, who served as a director and until resigning prior to his full-time political entry, has not been personally implicated in operational decisions post-departure, with attributing its strategies to broader industry challenges like labor shortages and post-pandemic recovery. Critics, including online forums, linked the scrutiny to Chia's past role, questioning alignment between SEHC ideals and profit-oriented models.
