Chitchat S'pore Ambassador blames S'pore parents for censorship regime
An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
Quite rich blaming Singaporeans and Singapore parents. And notice how the argument twists and turns - "One can read and see almost anything in Singapore, in private and online. But we treat free broadcasts differently." Here is another example - "Singaporeans, like Americans, expect free content to conform to community norms, and to be suitable for viewers of all ages." Then he brings in "wardrobe malfunction" It is so poorly written. Very unusual for this guy. I wonder if someone else wrote this. They would have better off not responding at all. Singapore’s Media Values MAY 26, 2017 To the Editor: “The Censor and the Vibrator,” by Balli Kaur Jaswal (Op-Ed, May 22), criticized how the media is regulated in Singapore. One can read and see almost anything in Singapore, in private and online. But we treat free broadcasts differently. Singaporeans, like Americans, expect free content to conform to community norms, and to be suitable for viewers of all ages. America’s norms differ from Singapore’s, but free content also conforms to standards that regulators deem appropriate for your society. Just as Americans are offended by “wardrobe malfunctions” occurring on TV, Singaporean parents object to the broadcast of adult themes like masturbation. Every country regulates its media in accordance with its own social norms. Singapore’s approach is neither “insidious” nor “unsettling,” but a reflection of our own values and social mores.
