In Defiance Of Government Orthodoxy

It's A Rich Man's World

(For The Benefit of the Government)

Policies are therefore often formulated solely towards achieving material gain.

Challenging the "Cultured", "Polite", "Edifying" and "Humane" PAP Government

To Be Incorrigibly Steadfast in Our Fight

For Freedom From Oppression

Legislation such as the NPPA and the formation of the SBA needs to be reviewed, and the media needs to be free to allow a healthy flow of uncensored information. Only when editors and journalists are free of their shackles can their writing serve to guide and educate.

The Singapore Government and the Mass Media

The Mass Media in Singapore

A society with a free flow of information--that is, where the media is free and independent--ensures that the government remains transparent and accountable. Transparency and accountability, or the lack thereof, is what got Asia into this crisis.
