DPM and Home Affairs Minister Teo Chee Hean replied to clarifications from MP for Aljunied GRC Sylvia Lim on manpower shortage, causes of the Little India riot and training of frontline police officers, among others. He spoke on the need to increase the size of the Special Operations Command (SOC). Besides public order control and security, Mr Teo said one of the reasons for increasing the SOC is also because there are more large-scale events in Singapore, such as football matches.
