Wan Rizal on Israel-Hamas conflict
The Israel-Hamas war is an issue that is resonating deeply with youths in Singapore, regardless of race. MP Wan Rizal said this in Parliament on Monday (Nov 6), based on meetings he has had with young people in recent weeks. He also emphasised that there has been constructive discourse, including a dialogue session that Law and Home Affairs Minister K Shanmugam held with Malay-Muslim leaders - reflecting, in his view, Singapore’s unique way of addressing global issues that could impact its social harmony. Dr Wan Rizal said he appreciated the principled and consistent stance that Singapore has always taken on the fraught Israeli-Palestinian issue - a balanced approach that reflects a deep understanding of the complex historical and political backdrop. He expressed gratitude for the Parliamentary motion that was raised, saying it provided a platform for the House to stand united in condemning the acts of terror and violations of international law that have exacerbated the suffering and discord in Israel and Gaza.
