Singapore: The confusing chaos of democracy continues
Chee Soon Juan, head of the Singapore Democratic Party, challenged the social fabric of the "speck" of a state on Monday by speaking to a crowd of 50 people for 2 minutes following a rally.
Chee is an "undischarged bankrupt", ineligible for participation in electoral activities, and was thus in violation of the Parliamentary Elections Act.
Singaporean law enforcement are said to be investigating the violation.
The incident followed Chee being blocked from going on stage at the rally itself.
The officer who blocked Chee from the stage stated "'I didn't prevent Dr Chee. I simply advised him if he goes on stage...'
Yes. Well then.
