SINGAPORE - Progress Singapore Party chief, Dr Tan Cheng Bock, on Sunday proposed a televised debate on the Covid-19 response - with him and Singapore Democratic Party chairman Paul Tambyah facing off against Trade and Industry Minister Chan Chun Sing and Health Minister Gan Kim Yong.

"I think I read somewhere that he told the media.. that we won't be able to help you in Covid-19 management. That shouldn't be. We will challenge it," said Dr Tan."No point telling you. Let's have a national debate. We go on television... So I think that will settle everything. You all will see whether we have the competency, whether we have the knowledge of this Covid-19... If take place, then we give you our answer.

"If they really consider that the election is safe, I tell you, they shouldn't have all these social distancing rules and so on. You're putting all at risk. And I'm really worried.""We try but we can't help it, people just come to you. So you know the situation is going to happen in any election like this," he said.
