Political career
Low joined the WP in 2020, and served as a secretarial assistant to Louis Chua, MP for Sengkang Group Representation Constituency (GRC), for about three years. [2] [3] He became a member of the party's media team in 2023. [2]
On 18 April 2025, Low was unveiled as part of a group of new WP candidates for the 2025 general election. [3] He made his political debut in the newly created Jalan Kayu Single Member Constituency (SMC) against Ng Chee Meng, a former cabinet minister and the candidate for the governing People's Action Party (PAP). [4]
During the campaigning period of the election, several private chat messages allegedly texted by Low surfaced on Reddit and Facebook. These messages allegedly showed him voicing discontent on a variety of subjects, some including the use of profanity. In response, Low apologised for his "completely inappropriate" language, stating that he was "not proud of the way [he] expressed [his] views" and that "there [was] no excuse for using such language or making disparaging comments about anyone – especially those who [had] placed their trust in [him]". [5]
On polling day, Low lost to Ng by 809 votes; [6] this was the smallest victory margin by a PAP candidate in this election. Being the best-performing defeated opposition candidate, Low became eligible for an NCMP seat. [7] [8] On 19 May, the WP announced that he would become an NCMP alongside Eileen Chong, one of five WP candidates for Tampines GRC. [9]
In June 2025, Low was co-opted, as the deputy head of the media team, to the Central Executive Committee (CEC) of the WP alongside Chong, Abdul Muhaimin and Kenneth Tiong. [10]
