Dr M’s walkout ‘regrettable’

The Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department in charge of Parliament and law said the task force only wanted to listen to views regarding the government’s decision to withdraw the appeal over the decision of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) that Singapore had sovereignty over Batu Puteh.
