马来社区领袖和议员 纷谴责到接见选民活动闹事者 在内政部兼律政部长尚穆根揭露有心人士到接见选民活动闹事后,一些马来社区领袖和议员也纷纷公开谴责相关闹事者。

内政部长兼律政部长尚穆根昨晚(13日)发贴文指出,过去几个月有一批人到处去人民行动党的接见选民活动,公然在活动上闹事、挑衅。行动党表示,这群人来自一个自称亲巴勒斯坦活动的团体。

《8视界新闻网》早前也报道,这个团体Monday of Palestine Solidarity表示,他们是一个基层,并希望能支持那些想要跟他们的议员讨论巴勒斯坦课题的民众。

白沙—榜鹅集选区议员沙礼尔(Sharael Taha)通过社交媒体Instagram发文证实,这群人曾经出现在白沙东的接见选民活动。

“他们的行为包括对志愿者没有礼貌,以及对家人发表损人言论,他们也表明从来没有想要进行有意义和有建设性的讨论。”

沙礼尔也补充,这群人的言行举止,包括出示粗鲁的手势,并不代表整个回教徒社群的价值观。

蔡厝港集选区议员周凯年(Zhulkarnain Abdul Rahim)则表示,在听闻有关发生在尚穆根接见选民活动的事件后,感到非常震惊。

“在斋戒月期间,我们应该保持耐心,展现良好的品格,向他人展现善意。”

他补充,想要倡导任何事情或提供任何反馈,是有适当的方式和管道,而闹事者的方式已经影响到其他需要帮助的新加坡人。

杨莉明:曾两次遇有心人来闹事数码发展及新闻部长兼内政部第二部长杨莉明分享,自己近日也在接见选民活动上,遭受有心人士挑衅。

也是惹兰勿刹集选区议员的杨莉明今天(14日)通过社交媒体发贴文分享两起事件,表示自己早前也遇到同一批人。

“行动党牛车水-金声党支部也发生过两起类似事件。我原本不打算公开谈论这些事件,但是自从得知发生在尚穆根身上的事后,我觉得我不得不这么做。”

早于去年11月就曾发生类似事件杨莉明表示,第一起事件发生于去年11月。两名女子当时去到了她的一场接见选民活动上,表达她们对于新加坡在以色列和哈马斯冲突上立场的担忧。

杨莉明说,她花费了约一个小时倾听这两人的担忧,也表示可以代表她们写信给相关部门,以便当局能够听取她们的反馈。

一对“母女”于1月到文庆接见选民活动第二起事件则发生在今年1月份。她说,一对自称是母女的民众来到她位于文庆一带的接见选民活动,同样有类似的举动。

杨莉明认为,这类事件影响了志愿者的工作,也影响她们旅行职责时的安全感。

[Deliberate rowdyism, rudeness at MPS last night][Deliberate rowdyism, rudeness at MPS last night] Over the last few months, we have noted a small number of persons going around to different Meet The People Sessions run by PAP MPs to be deliberately confrontational, create incidents, try and provoke. They then put out a version of what happened, to put the MP and his team in as negative light as possible. Last night this was tried at MPS. Two sisters came to see me. They were not my residents. Their photo is below in comments. I was walking around outside my Branch office, greeting the persons waiting for MPS, and spoke with them. I asked if they were my residents. They didn’t give a clear answer. I asked again, and one of them said that they were from Punggol. I said that MPS is for residents – for us to help our residents. She then asked me where is it written down, that we will only see our residents. They wanted to talk about POFMA. I was accused of lying because other MPs had seen persons who are not residents. (They accused me of lying, more than once, through the night). Their accusation, that I was lying, was typical of the way the engagement proceeded, through the night. MPS is run by the Branch, by the MP and volunteers. The Branch can decide that it will only see residents, though the MP can exercise some discretion in seeing non-residents. Most people will understand this – and if they didn’t know, they might ask why. They won’t be aggressive and accuse the MP of lying. The antagonistic way in which they spoke, behaved, interrupted, threw accusations of lying, suggested that they wanted to make a scene, get some material to put out, rather than engage in a genuine discussion. I told them that there were a lot of residents waiting to see me, with serious personal issues. I will deal with them first. If there is time, I will see the two sisters and discuss POFMA. If there is no time, then they would be given a time for either me or someone else to see them, discuss POFMA. I also had to step out for a while to join my Malay community leaders, to launch a Hari Raya light-up in my constituency. I explained to them that it was a busy night, I had a lot of office work pending as well – so they had to understand if I was not able to see them that night. After telling them that, I turned around to walk into my branch office. They then shouted very loudly “Coward”. Another person joined them in this shouting. I went back to them to tell them off for behaving in this way – I was quite unhappy with the disruption they were causing. I pointed to them to behave. I also pointed out to them that they were disrupting the MPS. They can’t, as non-residents, come to MPS and insist that their political discussion take priority over the needs of the waiting residents. They said they were prepared to wait. I think I also told them there was no basis for them to shout in a nasty way. Meanwhile, they were showing their middle finger, making scenes. Photo below in comments. I told them that their behaviour was being recorded. They then became very aggressive towards the lady volunteer who was recording. They told her that she should delete the video, and she should not have recorded without their consent. I told them that sometimes, my volunteers will follow me on my rounds, including at MPS, video my interactions, take photos. Those who have seen my FB page would have seen such photos, videos. And it was a public place, outside my branch. As a result of the commotion and noise, several of my volunteers had gathered around. There was a lot of concern. People are not used to this sort of rowdy behaviour, at MPS. The waiting residents were also shocked. Some of them (including a Malay lady) came to apologise to me for the behaviour of these two sisters. I understand that people may feel strongly about some issues. But MPS is not a protest venue. It is where residents go to their MPs to seek help. Many have acute concerns — housing, jobs, medical needs, family issues, and would wait patiently, often for hours, to speak with their MP. Hijacking these sessions is unfair to residents. There are appropriate avenues for advocacy — but disrupting sessions meant to help residents who are struggling with everyday challenges crosses a line. As I walked into my branch, again there was a question of whether I will see them – from the doorway of my branch, I said loudly enough for them to hear, that I will deal with them – I wanted to see them, speak with them, see if we find some common ground. I eventually spent a fair bit of time, about 30-45 min, towards the end of the MPS to speak with the two sisters and two others who came in with them. I told them that we were recording the discussion – because I know what had happened in other MPS sessions. I asked them if they had gone for any other MPS to discuss. I didn’t get a clear answer but think one or both said they had been to one other MPS. I asked if they were recording – and they said they were not recording. I treat discussions at MPS as confidential, so won’t go into what was discussed. Watch the video for what happened outside the Branch.
