I disagree with the writer of the letter “What really matters in Hong Lim Park clash” (Oct 1).
Ironically, his sweeping statements that apparently absolve one party from any and all blame, and his throwing of labels at the protesters are not in the interest of fairness.
Firstly, who started it matters. Provocation has always been a factor in judging a situation.
Secondly, the protesters moved off before the children’s performance began.
Chanting slogans is different from heckling and is precisely what one expects to happen during a demonstration, notably permitted in Singapore only at Hong Lim Park.
For the record, I have never met or communicated with Mr Roy Ngerng or Ms Han Hui Hui.
