He urged citizens to evaluate the WP on its statement, propositions, and potential contributions to the party in Parliament for all Singaporeans, not just those from particular areas.  ,
” We don’t want that because once we go down that path, we’ll have an unwanted politicisation of the public place.” That’s not good for Singapore, and it’s not good for our majority communities since well,” he said.  ,
After Ms. Alia Mattar, a novel experience for WP and contesting in Punggol GRC, had brought up the issue of Gaza in her protest statement on Thursday, the WP captain was also asked to address possible problems from voters.  ,
Mr. Singh responded that Ms. Alia’s remarks were not only her opinion, and that the group had a position on the two-state solution and how peace may be brought to that area.  ,
” Our method is more of a humanitarian problem,” he said, adding that “many Singaporeans, regardless of race and faith, are very sensitive to that problem.”  ,
He added that it was “par for the social fight” for people to “pick on some of our candidates” and that he was not surprised.  ,
” We have to be prepared for it,” he said.  ,  ,
Mr. Singh finally claimed that all races and religions are a part of the WP’s political philosophy.  ,
” We may be a powerful social group if we play the game of race and religion.”
He continued,” The party may be impartial and take into account everyone’s opinions.”  ,
There are a variety of viewpoints in Singapore right today, and always have been, especially today with social media.  ,
But if we are determined to manage it carefully, thoughtfully, and in the context of our multiracial society, we will be alright. ”  ,
