Netizens say 'highly paid' Sun Xueling shouldn't complain about 'rude' email from resident - Singapore News

SINGAPORE: Minister of State Sun Xueling’s recent Facebook post criticising the way a resident wrote to her has divided public opinion online, with some agreeing with her that the resident should have been civil in his communication and others asserting that the ruling party politician shouldn’t complain given the high pay she receives as an elected official.

The resident also expressed grievances about the uneven cement floors at the void deck and criticized a road design, using offensive language to describe it. The email concluded with a request for the Workers’ Party’s Jamus Lim to “take over here due to the sh*tloads of nonsense here” and referenced the Ridout Road controversy.

Stressing the importance of providing feedback in a civil manner, she wrote on Facebook: “There are ‘ways’ to provide feedback and ‘ways’ to provide feedback. I hope that as a society, we can try to be civil and not use bad language to get a point across.” u/AbelAngJQ said on the Singapore subreddit: Kinda puzzled why she needs to share it to the public. It’s part of the job to face overbearing and demanding residents. Kinda feels like virtue-signaling and sympathy-begging. “OMG look at these nasty ppl I deal with so much grace. I got the job done in the end so pats on my back.””

“It is rather unprofessional posting it publicly. As a public figure who serves the community, she should understand the potential of things like receiving crude language is part of her job. Is she living in a wonderland or something? She should have better control of her emotions and actions, otherwise this job is not a good fit for her.”
