He added that he would spend this time with his family.

The Sembawang GRC Member of Parliament (MP) will thus miss the MPS on 15 July, as well as on 22 July. However, his team will still run the sessions as scheduled.

“Our volunteers will be on site to assist residents with their enquiries and appeal,” Mr Ong wrote.

Several days ago, Mr Ong revealed that he had been sacrificing sleep to catch the World Cup quarter-finals.

The Sembawang MP has been a football fan since childhood, supporting “struggling EPL team” Manchester United.

Hopefully, he can get to enjoy the final few matches now.
