I wonder why the minister highlighted this I hope to bring another perspective based on my own personal experience handling people.
Those who work in service positions and meet walk in customers will know it is not uncommon to meet people who are mentally ill and have no control about what they say. Some will threaten you because they completely lose their temper when their request is denied. Those servicing general public are well aware of this. Sometimes we look at the person threatening as victim of mental illness or sick.
By highlighting this the minister make me feel that they live in a cacoon and interaction is pleasant and civil! This is not what happens in the real world. The resident himself could be unwell mentally and unable to control his behavior. A normal person will not threaten an MP in public like that. So to characterise the resident as bully ..the way he did may not be accurate. He should have some empathy for a person suffering mental conditions and not simply push blame and jump into conclusions.
A few months ago our president said we should be !ore understanding in the way we deal with those who are mentally ill. Unfortunately when the minister and MP encounter a person who is potentially mentally ill and unable to moderate his behavior , they characterise him as a bully. This for me is disappointing. Service staff often have to handle these situations with empathy and do not pass judgement on such people.
Worse still Shanmuggan used his social media and that causes shame to the person..and invites others who are ignorant to attack the person. As a leader p, Shanmuggan is a let down. He shows a lack of empathy and deeper understanding

Very sad, MP Derrick Goh cannot handle the situation himself.
Thanks Law Minister Shanmugam for coming forward to assist a MP

Is Paul a new citizen? Looks like he feels it is his entitlement to have things done to his whims and fancy.
If he wants it built ask him to foot the costs.

The resident may be unreasonable or even mentally unstable, but why need to shame him? What happened to the statement that MPs are servants of the people? Or this only applies just before election?
