As things heat up ahead of Polling Day, the People’s Action Party (PAP) has been criticised for bringing domestic violence into an ongoing war of words with Singapore Democratic Party (SDP) secretary-general Chee Soon Juan.
A PAP press statement released yesterday (July 3) that compared Dr Chee’s assertions about the party to allegations of beating up one’s spouse was “regrettable” and “insensitive”, the Association of Women for Action and Research (Aware) said today.
In its statement accusing Dr Chee of repeating the “false statement” that their party was targeting a population of 10 million, PAP wrote: “A simple analogy will explain Dr Chee’s mendacity.
“Imagine this. Dr Chee claims you said you want to beat up your spouse. You deny it, and show proof that you neither said this nor have beaten your spouse.
“Instead of apologising, Dr Chee says: ‘Victory! I extracted a promise from you that you will never beat your spouse.'”
