A heated exchange between Minister for Sustainability and the Environment Grace Fu and Workers' Party (WP) Member of Parliament (MP) Jamus Lim broke out in Parliament on Tuesday (Nov 8) over whether there should be flexibility in carbon pricing to take into account the economic situation.
As the two butted heads, Leader of the Opposition Pritam Singh stepped in at one point and said that either party ought to be seated when the other was speaking, as per usual parliament etiquette.

What is the speaker of Parliament doing? Why must he wait for Mr Pritam to address the order? Isn't it supposed to be the Mr Speaker's Job?

Civil service is full of bosses like Grace Fu. Which is exactly why certain things can go wrong and stay wrong for years and years.

The arrogant and dismissive way she and many other PAP ministers behave is exactly why pap needs to be humbled and be a taught a lesson or two in the next election.

Wow Pritam, standing up for his team member boldly. That was the turning point in this argument

Funny sia grace fu so threatened. I applaud Jamus for his calm composure.

What a shameful, embarrassing and cringe performance from Grace Fu. Honestly, the lack of decorum is just appalling - is this the 4G leader calibre that we are to expect next?

This clearly reflects how WP Jamus Lim hold a robust debate in a profound manner vs a senior veteran in parliament whom lose one's composure when challenged.

@janetchong5048 Год назад

3 cheers to Jamus for his composure...

@joshau2346 Год назад

having an opposition party's opinion is great to challenge our ministers' assumptions. This discussion could have been beneficial for both parties if handled in a calm and composed manner. I hope that wp can compliment's pap's leadership while pap could learn to take feedbacks more positively.

The young voters will not BE taking kindly to arrogance displayed by PAP know-all ministers.

@zhuangjingmei1168 Год назад

Jamus is just too good. Grace Fu has problematic understanding him, let alone able to engage in the debate intellectually. Gotcha! Grace Fu!

@lizjamri8231 Год назад

Can tell what sort of a boss she is. Thinks everyone suggestions are nonsense and taking it quite personal rather than being practical and be wise into understanding the suggestions given. She doesn't want to listen as the suggestions are not even entirely against what is being set already.

James Lim should have just asked Grace Fu what the interest rates in 2025 would be. Point would have gone through clearer.

Its funny how the Gov selects their cabinet ministers. A ex army general in charge of education when he has no background experience in educational leadership. A ex accountant in charge of sustainability when she has no background experience in green technology and a doctor who is in charge of manpower while some nobody who has no relevant experience is in charge of health. Is that what meritocracy is?

@segarissehari7699

As a Malaysian, this is the calmest heated exchange in parliament 😂

Grace Fu is basically asking Jamus Lim to predict the future, while Jamus is just saying to be prepared because the future is uncertain. I don't know what Grace doesn't understand, cause it seems pretty clear to me.
