This is not the right approach of simply pushing away citizens who are not belonging to its constituency. These citizens hv initially started a polite conversations. But the listener sounds arrogant and disrespectful. Also threatening in a certain way. To gain respect, first of all, must respect others even though a person is of a higher authority. Totally unbelievable when seeing this clip. Is a wake-up call and truly deserves a piece of mind.
Activism....Singaooreans are passive in nature and always view activism negatively.
To confront an MP or a legislator on an issue you fell strongly about is notvwrong because they are the only ones who can represent you and your views in parliament.
However is again is the Gaza issue...or the Israel killing people in Gaza issue in response to terrorist acts conducted against Israel.
This has nothing to do with Singapore. Singapore has very little dealings Israel, they are far away and hardly any trading or business relations.
mp can used a first level filter. real case of need for help then meet the mp.

civil service game by doing the easy solutions and want you to provide the answer for them to
throw problem to other parties to solve the problem.

Absolutely agree!
I'm am proud of Minister Shanmugam! True how many Mini-stars meet up with their constituency's residents?! All of then instead sing song talk cock in "big" events - pretending to be smart when they are not, or busy dating their fellow MPs!

MPS has been a historical "tradition" for SG elected officials before 1965.
Such session plays an essential role in our system that enable political ruling class to have weekly face-to-face session with SGreans when their schedule allow.
In fact LKY learn this from the WP's founder David Mashall, in pre-1965 and ever since he mandated all PAP ministers/MP to attend MPS as frequently as possible, even in these days of remote meetings and Zoom.
In the nutshell, MPS is NOT a session to complain like you are one Mother0-F*CKER self-entitled Karen-Bitch demanding answers from MP and getting rude simply because you don't get what you want.
Remember THIS - This is SINGAPORE, not India nor Bolehland...

I assume security details only step in when the interaction becomes potentially physical.
Still, it is a risk any MP has to take, regardless of the fact violence towards SG politicians during MPS is very very rare.
A few MP were attacked over the last 25 years. including 2 incidents during a MPS.
MP Tan Wu Meng was attacked by a 32-year-old man during his MPS as well, in April 2018. A man walked towards Tan while he was speaking to another resident, grabbed him in a choke hold and slammed him against a wall, before yanking him to his knees. However, after a formal medical evaluation at the A&E, Tan was able to continue his duties and return to the MPS to finish writing appeal letters for his residents

If you had watched the video, Shan had told the "activists" that video taking is common during MPS by the volunteers when needed and it is allowed in public space.
I find it ironic these "activists" shouting at Shan calling him "coward" when they themselves are wearing masks...

Sham is also an MP for Nee Soon GRC, which is the role he was undertaking at the MPS.
Also, the video shows the minister had handled the exchange with as much respect as possible while his security team didn't interrupt the exchange without the minister requesting for.
Sell your residential unit and make your full donations to the Gazans then send your sons to fight their war...no need go hassle ah Shan during Ramadan...wayang to community, wayang to Allah..

Ok just saw the clip. This is not staged, the security is right behind the M. But strangely why someone else is recording and nobody stopped them, because permission is required before you can capture picture or videos of others.
