This is the first time she has been spotted at a Marine Parade cluster event.
Ms Gho has been photographed alongside Mountbatten MP Lim Biow Chuan since August 2024, and has accompanied him to numerous events such as National Day celebrations with the Thye Hua Kwan Active Ageing Centre and the Mountbatten Active Ageing Committee. She has also accompanied Mr Lim on house visits in Geylang, Katong and other areas in the single-member constituency.
The Marine Parade cluster consists of Braddell Heights, Geylang Serai, Joo Chiat, Kembangan-Chai Chee, Marine Parade, MacPherson and Mountbatten.
At the April 6 event, Ms Gho joined Prime Minister Lawrence Wong and the cluster’s incumbent MPs onstage in launching two new Marine Parade initiatives
The Caregiver Support Fund, providing up to $1,600 to support caregivers of family members living in the area, and the Industry Immersive Programme, which will provide young residents with internship opportunities, were launched at the event held at Kampong Ubi Community Centre.
Those present included Marine Parade GRC MPs, Manpower Minister Tan See Leng (Marine Parade), Minister for Culture, Community and Youth Edwin Tong (Joo Chiat), Speaker of Parliament Seah Kian Peng (Braddell Heights), and mayor Fahmi Aliman (Geylang Serai), as well as MacPherson MP Tin Pei Ling and Mr Lim, the Mountbatten MP.

Ms Gho, who is in her mid-40s, was seen interacting with residents at the event alongside Mr Lim, but did not speak to the media.
On whether he hopes to continue serving as MP in Mountbatten SMC, Mr Lim said: “As the sitting MP, our stand is always that we stand in service of the Prime Minister. If the Prime Minister asks us to continue, we will always do our best.”
Ms Gho is a long-term party volunteer who was among the speakers at the 2021 PAP party convention, where the then Bukit Timah branch secretary called for the inclusion of diverse voices across its ranks.
She received a Public Service Medal in 2023 as vice-chairwoman of the Bukit Timah Citizens’ Consultative Committee.
She is currently associate director at AsiaLegal, a boutique law firm that specialises in maritime law.
