#501 - Pritam Singh Wades into Leong Mun Wai POFMA Case & MP Tests Electric Dog Collars on Himself

This week in Parliament, it was revealed that Leader of the Opposition Pritam Singh was the one who referred the West Coast couple in the recent POFMA case to Leong Mun Wai. Senior Parliamentary Secretary Eric Chua questioned his intentions in doing so before the Budget 2024 announcement, chastising the politicising of vulnerable people. Who’s playing politics here? Elsewhere, MP Tan Kiat How revealed in Parliament that he has been testing electric dog collars on himself, as part of his research into whether these pet training accessories pose any harm to animals. Beyond the chorus of “Wut”s heard online, why are some reacting positively to this action?
