SINGAPORE: Workers’ Party Member of Parliament Muhammad Faisal Manap was warded in hospital on Monday (Jul 24) night for a cardiac condition.
“His condition is stable and he is being monitored and cared for in the Intensive Care Unit. Mr Faisal is conscious,” the party said on Tuesday in a statement posted on Facebook.
“His family appreciates the public’s concern, and they have requested for privacy so he can focus on his recuperation.”
The 48-year-old has been the Member of Parliament for Aljunied GRC since 2011.
In his absence, the remaining GRC MPs and other party members will cover his constituency duties, said WP.
The other Aljunied GRC MPs are Leader of the Opposition Pritam Singh, party chairwoman Sylvia Lim and WP head of policy research Gerald Giam.
