The Teochew Poit Ip Huay Kuan has elected new leadership, with its incoming president revealing that the group has raised $1.4 million from members to fund its court dispute with Ngee Ann Kongsi.

Speaking at a media briefing yesterday about the election results that were finalised on Saturday, Mr Chan also revealed that some $1.4 million has been raised from members since the Huay Kuan began fund-raising efforts on Jan 24 for its court dispute with the Kongsi.The dispute between the two prominent Teochew community associations revolves around the redevelopment of the Teochew Building in Tank Road, which has housed both since 1963.

Mr Chan said he could not comment in detail on the case as it is before the courts, but added that the dispute will not affect the Huay Kuan's ongoing activities and outreach efforts. One of the seven incoming vice-presidents is Mr Teo Hark Piang, executive director of gas company Union Energy. At 41, he is the youngest to be elected to the post in 20 years.He is currently serving as assistant treasurer of the Huay Kuan. The board serves a two-year term.
