Plight of the vulnerable should not be politicised: Eric Chua
Senior Parliamentary Secretary for Social and Family Development Eric Chua said the plight of vulnerable people should not be politicised. The Ministry of Social and Family Development was asked about a correction order it issued to Non-Constituency MP Leong Mun Wai, who had made false claims online that a couple with medical conditions in West Coast was not receiving financial help. Workers' Party MP Gerald Giam had asked if it had been necessary to disclose the CPF and MediSave balances of the couple. Sherlyn Seah reports.
