The Big Story Ep 31: Good for S'pore to have adequate opposition MPs, but disagreement must not lead to polarisation, paralysis: PM Lee
3:52 mins
Synopsis: This is a special episode of The Straits Times' video series The Big Story.
Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong says having an adequate number of opposition MPs in Parliament is good for Singapore as this keeps the Government on its toes, and shows Singaporeans that it has nothing to hide.
But he adds that more opposition MPs and fiercer debate in the House may not necessarily be better, cautioning that the tone of Singapore's political debate could change for the worse.
