See how Shammugam handle "protestors" during his Meet-The-People Sessions - Manthink - 14-03-2025

Must admit the minister  handled the "confrontation" pretty well.

Smells like this is a publicity stunt ?  Big Grin

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.

At the end of the day, these "activists" managed to self-pawn and the Gov knows very well how to best exploit such silly acts. Big Grin

Okay a few issues.

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.

Why these protestor wear mask when protesting ... are they protesting something they feel shameful

If you are protesting something you feel is right ... show face to show honor and pride not hide behind a mask

Ah shan obviously knows he's being filmed, hence he tried to act very reasonable. Those two women are stupid to fall into his trap.

civil service game by doing the easy solutions and want you to provide the answer for them to

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!

I must stand on the side of Ah Shan.  You don’t just push and demand that your agenda takes priority. Especially for this issue.

MPS is not the place for such things.  Send these jokers to Gaza asap!

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...

If LKY is around, these 2 Press will be locked up immediately. No doubt about. Cheers!

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... Big Grin

Sham is a minister, protocol differs from that of a MP..

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.

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.
