HE DID not lose sleep over it, neither did he know about the matter till it surfaced in the media.
Minister for Community Development, Youth and Sports Vivian Balakrishnan said yesterday that negative online comments about the Youth Olympic Games did not affect him - a day after news broke that a 27-year-old man had been arrested for posting comments on Facebook that the police said 'incited violence'.
'Even the newspaper report, I didn't even know about it until I read about it in the papers,' said Dr Balakrishnan, who addressed reporters at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel during a round-up session on the Games.
'It shows that I almost didn't care. I had more important things to do, I had good feedback and good suggestions from so many people, and I focused on that.
'I didn't lose sleep about that.'
Abdul Malik Mohammed Ghazali had posted on Aug 18, on the 'I hate the Youth Olympic Games Organising Committee' Facebook group, that it was time to 'burn Vivian Balakrishnan and the PAP'.
The PAP is the ruling People's Action Party.
This, after a food poisoning case involving 21 Games volunteers on Aug 15. Dr Balakrishnan's ministry is in charge of the Games, which ended yesterday.
Referring to online critics, many of whom had questioned the wisdom of hosting the event, which cost $387 million - about triple the original budget - he said: 'They're entitled to their own opinions, but I wish that the people who criticise actually participated in the Games, or volunteered in the Games, or did something in the Games.
'My e-mail address is public knowledge. So there were many people who were critical but constructive, who sent me suggestions which I acted on.'
Despite Malik's views, which included a call to 'rally together and vote them out', he had not contacted Dr Balakrishnan's ministry directly.
The police picked Malik up on Tuesday morning and seized his computer. He was released on bail later that day, and investigations are ongoing.
Dr Balakrishnan also conceded that on hindsight YOG tickets should perhaps have been sold for individual matches instead of entire sessions, to avoid the initial problem of half-empty venues but tickets being sold out.
Admitting he felt 'terribly guilty' about Singaporeans queueing up, he said he met several of them, adding: '(MCYS Parliamentary Secretary Teo) Ser Luck and I ran round from venue to venue checking on queues, banging on doors to say you start selling tickets now and you let them in now.'
