What's wrong with Singapore minister?

Singapore minister scolded Singaporeans for being a bunch of disgraceful idiots when they went on a panic buying spree.

What's my take on this remark?

Well, I believe this minister has lost touch with people on the ground and SG is the only place in the world whereby our minister will verbally abuse our citizens.

Did Singaporeans do something out of the ordinary? Hell No!

Panic buying occurs in many places and not just in SG.  Just take a look below.

Did their governments scold their own citizens as disgraceful idiots? Hell No!

We did the same thing as other people in other countries but we got scolded.

If other governments scold their own citizens as disgraceful idiots, the idiots will vote out their governments.
