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
