SINGAPORE: Having opposition MPs in Parliament would strengthen, not weaken, the government because they bring new ideas and perspectives to the table, Red Dot United’s (RDU) Kala Manickam said.
The Jurong Central SMC candidate was asked during a walkabout in Jurong Central Plaza on April 29 about Prime Minister Lawrence Wong’s statement during the Fullerton Rally the day before, when he said having more opposition voices would weaken the government amid challenging times.
