Looking at the video, I can see a big bunch of butt hurt losers. Acting tough, shouting at their MP. And half the time, I couldn't understand what there were trying to say. I assume they were speaking English.

“Are you running a communist law now?” PMD riders confront Jurong GRC MP Ang Wei Neng
It was probably the most tense PMD-MPS meeting so far.

Personal mobility device (PMD) food delivery riders showed little signs of abating as they continued to visit Meet-the-People Sessions (MPS) for the fifth consecutive working day (Nov. 11, 2019).
However, the MPS at Jurong Central took a rather tense turn when they confronted Ang Wei Neng, Member of Parliament for Jurong GRC, regarding the footpath ban that was enacted on Nov. 5.

In a video of the session sent to Mothership (and uploaded to Facebook), an elderly man can be heard gesturing and shouting angrily at Ang, while a group of people stood around to watch.
Around the elderly man were PMD riders dressed in their delivery uniforms, including those from Grab and Deliveroo.
It appeared that most of the delivery riders were seated in chairs that were likely to be prepared by the MPS volunteers. Such a scene was also observed in Jurong last Thursday.
“Can the government withdraw the law? Take back the law! Can? Yes or no!” the elderly man shouted.
“Can you give us the S$7 million that we need on the spot [undecipherable]? On the spot!” he continued.
“You take back all our freedom! You take all our freedom! You see….And now we become enemies! We are enemies inside our own country! Are you running a communist law now?”
The elderly man was probably referring to the new S$7 million e-scooter trade-in grant announced by LTA last Friday (Nov. 8).
Under this scheme, delivery riders will receive a grant of between S$600 to S$1,000 to trade in their e-scooters for regular bicycles, power-assisted bicycles (PABs) and personal mobility aids (PMAs).
Then, the crowd can be heard urging the uncle to cool down.
Someone else shouted: “We are human, not dog!”

At one point, another man also accused Land Transport Authority (wrongly, if we might add) of breaching the Personal Data Protection Act when the latter took photos of PMD riders flouting regulations.
He added that the “[members of the public] are the ones offending us and triggering our tempers here”:
“We don’t owe them anything. We are not their slaves. We have served the country, we have contributed to our nation.”
“Yet we never get back any benefits from the government,” he said to applause and cheers from PMD riders around him.

Later when a visibly stressed representative (in black blazer) of the group of PMD riders spoke up to try to calm the group, another man can be heard shooting him down saying:
“We don’t want to ban. Legalise back! Anything (happens), you check the rules, (then) summon! Simple, give our live back!”
The representative then said: “We need to also find a win-win situation! We cannot give them (the MPs) a hard time right?”
As for MP Ang Wei Neng, not much could be heard from him in the video, but at one point, he said that he will take back all of the feedback he heard from this session.

How many PMD riders in sinkapore? 10000? 15000? No problem lah... small percentage of votes lost. If they don't ban PMD from footpaths, they will lose even more votes... It's a number game for PAP :biggrin:

10k to 15k adds up to a SMC size... however, they are being scattered all around, thus, doesn't matter lah... PAP only focus on the Merdeka+Pioneer Electorates - ~30% +/- , MNC/GLC/Gov Services/Ministries - ~ 40% +/- here is your defacto 70% magic number, and the SMEs and lower rung category - ~30% +/- can be ignored entirely, and the first time voters is estimated to be around 180,000 or about 7.5% of total electorate base.

You forgot about the people who don't ride PMDs but hate the ban. Or those who ride PMDs but don't ride them for food delivery. Or those who sell/repair PMDs for a living. There're more of them than you imagine.

Good luck! :wink:

Plus spouses, siblings, in-laws, parents and relatives.

Should be hundreds of thousands.

Btw a grant is not a gift must pay back with interests.

The PAP is destroying the rice bowl of PMD users; they rely on the PMD to make a living. They have family members who are voters too.

That's the problem with sinkees ...worrying about offending the MP instead of holding them accountable. It is time to get out of the kowtow mentality.

Look at the dumbass grin on Ang Kway Neng's face. :roflmao:

MP Ang thinks its a joke and its a trivial issue. Instead of empathise look and giving a listening ear, he is blatantly brushing him off as annoying noises. Not worth his time. Fuck Lah, at least give a serious look. Chee Bye Grin Face.

If we have smart opposition politicians, they will out there front and centre leading the attack on the PAP. But they have all gone AWOL. Our opposition politicians suck.
