#608 - NRIC Unmasking Saga Laid Open in Parliament & Political Showdown in Bukit Gombak

  • Summary

  • This week, we unpack the exchanges in Parliament about the recent case of unintentional NRIC unmasking by ACRA. Minister Josephine Teo and Minister Indranee fielded a bevy of questions from both sides, but some questions still remain unanswered. Is the public overreacting? Elsewhere, a political confrontation between PSP and PAP volunteers at Bukit Gombak escalated into what is now a police case. What triggered the clash, and what does it mean for Singapore’s election culture?
