FOUR backbenchers from the private sector will take on office-holder positions in what is described as a "more extensive than usual" Cabinet shuffle, which sees many of the ruling party's recently elected candidates given new or expanded roles.
The four are Marine Parade GRC MP Edwin Tong, Chua Chu Kang GRC MP Zaqy Mohamad, Pasir Ris-Punggol GRC MP Sun Xueling and Jurong GRC MP Tan Wu Meng.
