  • MP Denise Phua Apologises For Using The Phrase “Walking Time Bombs”

    MP Denise Phua Apologises For Using The Phrase “Walking Time Bombs”

    Member of Parliament for Jalan Besar Ms Denise Phua apologised on Friday  (Apr 8) for her choice of words in her recent speech during the Ministry of Home Affairs budget debate.

    “I should not have used the phrase ‘walking time-bombs’ to describe congregations of high density,” she wrote in a Facebook post.

    Ms Phua, who is also the mayor of the Central Singapore, was relating a recent visit to Little India in Parliament.

    As her constituency covers part of the Little India neighbourhood, she had put forth some suggestions in an effort to safeguard against a repeat of the Little India riot. The suggestions include forming a multi-agency Task Force to manage security risks of congestion or ring-fencing communal residential areas.

    “I have no intention to undermine any specific group,” Ms Phua explained. “I personally get along very well with the foreign cleaners in my constituency. To them and the other foreign workers in our country, thank you for your help and please accept my sincere apology if I have caused you concern.”

  • Damanhuri: The Elites On Top Should Climb Down From Their High Towers

    Damanhuri: The Elites On Top Should Climb Down From Their High Towers

    When the government’s attitude and relationship with an entire minority community are based on suspicion and distrust, their arguments to dance around that disgusting truth gets more and more hollow and untenable. Discrimination based on race and religion still exists and must end starting with the government. 50 years of tolerance by the minority deserves a better response than pathetic excuses to justify policies that remains on the shelf when it has long past its expiry date. The majority Chinese, Malay, Indian and Eurasian Singaporeans (especially hdb-dwellers) are well in the road of integration, respect and tolerance. Its those few elites on top that seems out of sync in their high towers.

  • Nizam Ismail: Discriminatory Practice and Distrust Of Malays

    Nizam Ismail: Discriminatory Practice and Distrust Of Malays

    It gets tenuous when the justification for what is essentially a discriminatory practice is on the non availability of a halal kitchen.

    Please, there are many ways to resolve this. It’s not rocket science.

    If the issue is still one of distrust of a Malay Singaporean son in defending his country, then say it as it is. The fact remains that there is an under-representation of Malay NSmen in several “sensitive” positions of the SAF, RSAF and RSN. And an over-representation of Malay NSmen in the SCDF and SPF. And a significant portion of Madrasah boys are not called up for NS.

    This has nothing to do with food. Or space for halal kitchen. It’s tragic that we are still debating this after 50 years of independence.

    If you truly believe in multiculturalism, there must be no space for discrimination. If you truly believe in multiculturalism, there must be inclusivity and equal opportunity. For all.

    When will there be a level playing field?
