The HollandâÂÂBukit Timah Group Representation Constituency is a four-member group representation constituency (GRC) situated in central, western and northern Singapore. It has four divisions: Bukit Timah, Cashew, Ulu Pandan and Zhenghua, managed by HollandâÂÂBukit Panjang Town Council (HBPTC). The current Members of Parliament (MPs) for the constituency are Edward Chia, Christopher de Souza, Sim Ann and Vivian Balakrishnan from the People's Action Party (PAP).
Prior to the 2006 general election, the five-member HollandâÂÂBukit Panjang GRC was abolished. Its Bukit Panjang division was carved out as Bukit Panjang Single Member Constituency (SMC); the rest of the GRC was merged with Bukit Timah SMC to form the five-member HollandâÂÂBukit Timah GRC. The PAP won unopposed.
During the 2011 general election, HollandâÂÂBukit Timah GRC lost a seat in Parliament to become a four-member GRC. The PAP defeated the Singapore Democratic Party (SDP) with 60.08% of the vote.
During the 2015 general election, Chee Soon Juan, the secretary-general of the SDP, led the party's team for HollandâÂÂBukit Timah GRC, in his first political candidacy since the 2001 general election. He had been excluded from the 2006 and 2011 general elections after becoming bankrupt due to defamation lawsuits by the leadership of the PAP, as well as imprisonment for civil disobedience. The PAP defeated the SDP with 66.6% of the vote.
During the 2020 general election, Teo Ho Pin, the incumbent MP for Bukit Panjang SMC, retired from politics. Liang Eng Hwa, the incumbent MP for the Zhenghua division of HollandâÂÂBukit Timah GRC, was redeployed to retain the SMC for the PAP; he was replaced by Edward Chia, a political newcomer. The PAP defeated the SDP with 66.36% of the vote.
During the 2025 general election, HollandâÂÂBukit Timah GRC absorbed a polling district from the defunct Jurong GRC; at the same election, the SDP exited HollandâÂÂBukit Timah GRC in favour of Red Dot United (RDU), another opposition party. The PAP defeated RDU with 79.25% of the vote, the best performance for the former in the GRC since its creation.
A large portion of HollandâÂÂBukit Timah GRC is made up of greenery and nature reserves, namely the Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, the Rifle Range Nature Park, the Central Water Catchment and the preserved Bukit Timah railway station as part of the Rail Corridor. The parks of the Mandai Wildlife Reserve are also located in the constituency.
HollandâÂÂBukit Timah GRC is known as one of the wealthiest constituencies in Singapore, because of an above-average rate of multimillion-dollar private housing, predominantly owned by the wealthiest residents of the country. As such, it has been nicknamed the "rich man's ward" or "rich man's GRC". However, HDB estates, concentrated in Bukit Panjang (excluding the SMC) and Ghim Moh, are more middle-income.
