SINGAPORE — Enforcement action had to be taken as a"last resort" after a man staying in an East Coast Park shelter declined repeated offers of assistance and continued to deprive other parkgoers of its use, said the National Parks Board and the Ministry of Social and Family Development on Saturday .
He was offered shelter but declined and was"resistant to any form of assistance", said the agencies, who noted that Chan appeared to be in good health. He was informed in August 2022 that further enforcement action would be taken if he did not vacate the shelter. MSF said it has been working with the Partners Engaging and Empowering Rough Sleepers Network, which includes community groups, to engage and befriend rough sleepers.
