Them monkeys in white don't just literally sleep on the jobs, they also have a penchant for disrupting the opposition in parliament.

This was a tragic case.
Both were young national servicemen.
Both were serving the nation.
On 17 July 1987, at a military camp in Ulu Pandan Road in Singapore, 34-year-old Staff Sergeant (SSGT) Daniel De Rozario was fatally shot by a 19-year-old National Serviceman named Chia Chee Yeen (่ฐขๅฟ่ดค Xiรจ Zhรฌxiรกn), a Lance Corporal who was also an armoury storeman.
Lance Corporal Chia's motive for the shooting was due to SSGT De Rozario punishing him to be confined in the army camp for six weeks due to a disciplinary offence. Lance Corporal Chia, who admitted to the crime, stated that he hated the victim and was also a fan of Hong Kong actor Chow Yun Fatt, and thus he emulated a film role of Chow to kill SSGT De Rozario.
Lance Corporal Chia, who also raised a defence of diminished responsibility, was found guilty of murder and sentenced to death on 28 May 1990, three years after he shot SSGT De Rozario to death.

SINGAPORE โ Acting Minister-in-charge of Muslim Affairs Faishal Ibrahim has resigned from political office over a โlapse of judgmentโ in handling his interactions with a woman, who is a member of the public.
Most of their interactions took place through online messages and they also met on the sidelines of public events, said Prime Minister Lawrence Wong in a statement on July 20.
Zaqy Mohamad, who is currently Senior Minister of State for Sustainability and the Environment and Defence, will take over as Acting Minister-in-charge of Muslim Affairs.
Faishal, in a letter of resignation to PM Wong on July 20, said there was no physical relationship between him and the woman, and that he had not intended for the interactions to develop into one.
But he said on reflection, he recognised that his conduct โfell short of the standards expected of me and was not consistent with the responsibilities entrustedโฆ
SINGAPORE โ Lawyer Ahmad Firdaus Daud will take over former acting minister-in-charge of Muslim affairs Faishal Ibrahimโs grassroots responsibilities in Kembangan, The Straits Times has learnt.
From Sept 1, the 2025 General Election PAP reserve candidate will be second grassroots adviser in the ward formerly overseen by Faishal, Speaker of Parliament Seah Kian Peng said on Aug 28 in response to queries from ST.
Seah, who is also an MP for Marine Parade-Braddell Heights GRC, of which Kembangan is a part, said Firdaus is not new to grassroots work and his addition will โcertainly strengthen the teamโ.
Firdaus has already met the group representaton constituencyโs other MPs and key grassroots leaders, he added.
Seah said Firdaus will also have a key role in matters concerning the Malay/Muslim community in Kembangan.
Party volunteers were told at an outreach event on Aug 23 that Firdaus will take over Faishalโs grassroots responsibilities in September, said a volunteer who asked to remain anonymous.
In a Facebook post on Aug 27, Seah posted a photo of Firdaus along with the constituencyโs other four remaining MPs at that event โ a National Day voucher distribution in Kembangan.
Seah said in the post that it was โgood to be out together as a GRC team and also with our volunteers last weekend, distributing National Day vouchers to our Kembangan residentsโ. He added that it was a good opportunity to come together, get to know one another better, and work as a team to look after residents in Kembangan.
Firdaus, 42, was a reserve candidate for the PAP during the 2025 General Election. After the election, he was made second grassroots adviser in Punggol under Deputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong and has been involved in grassroots work there.
Seah told ST that Firdaus will continue as second grassroots adviser in Punggol for the time being, but will relinquish that role to focus on Kembangan โsooner rather than laterโ. He added that he has worked out an arrangement with Gan.
The GRCโs four MPs โ Seah, Goh Pei Ming, Tin Pei Ling and Diana Pang โ will continue to support the work for residents in Kembangan, and are looking forward to Firdausโ appointment, he said.
This comes about a month after Faishalโs resignation from political office, Parliament and the PAP on July 20 over inappropriate interactions with a female member of the public. He also left his position as grassroots adviser in Kembangan, a role usually held by the sitting PAP MP.
Since Faishalโs resignation, the four remaining Marine Parade-Braddell Heights GRC MPs have split the responsibilities for his Kembangan ward while awaiting a new grassroots adviser.
Seah told the media earlier in August that not having a Malay/Muslim grassroots adviser was โnot desiredโ and he hoped to have the role filled.
