Member of the Parliament and a leader belonging to the Peoples Action Party (PAP), Baey Yam Keng, said this Friday that it was “never on top of my mind, nor is it PAP’s (People’s Action Party) priority” to take an action against the users who wrote “a coordinated attack with malicious edits” on the party’s Wikipedia page.
His statement said, “Whether any legal action can be taken is something we need to consider. We need to look at whether there is indeed any legal recourse for us. Ultimately it is quite a vicious attack.” In the afternoon, Mr. Baey also responded on his Instagram account saying, “Changing the name of a party and launching a coordinated attack with malicious edits is not an acceptable code of conduct. There are avenues available to express one’s views, however differing and dissenting.” Mr Baey also said that he knew that the Internet community and also public at large will “be able to make their own judgement” about the party and what had happened. “Therefore, advocating legal action for this instance is never on top of my mind, nor is it PAP’s priority,” added Mr Baey .
Another statement that followed on his Instagram account said, “I have requested Straits Times to make a file correction as I did not ‘call on ruling party to consider legal action’.”
