SINGAPORE — Progress Singapore Party’s chief Tan Cheng Bock has called for a national debate on the COVID-19 pandemic in response to Minister for Trade and Industry Chan Chun Sing’s comments that the opposition was not prepared to handle the crisis.
Chan said at a media doorstop on Saturday that he had perused the manifestoes from the opposition parties and found that proposals or suggestions on how to get through the pandemic were “glaringly missing”. Asked to share some of his proposals or arguments he would raise at such a debate, Dr Tan said, “No need, we will debate it in the House.”
Cheer-off between PSP and PAP supportersDr Tan was accompanying PSP member Lee Hsien Yang and PSP’s Nee Soon GRC slate, consisting of Bradley Bowyer, Damien Tay, Taufik Supan, Kala Manickam, and S Nallakaruppan, who visited at least five coffeeshops around the Yishun area on Sunday. When asked about the hustings, Faishal said Nee Soon residents would know how the PAP has taken care of them.
Bowyer responding to Shanmugam’s statementBowyer responded to Yahoo News Singapore’s question about comments by Law and Home Affairs Minister and incumbent Nee Soon MP K Shanmugam on Saturday that the PSP candidate was offering jobs as town council cleaners to Singaporeans.
