Regarding TODAY

Some of you have been asking, so here goes.

I have been informed that TODAY has suspended my column.

It has been a trying few days for me, my family, my mum and my friends. Thank you all for your emails, letters, calls, SMSes, blogs and comments, I don’t know what to say.

Thanks.

It is a sad day for many of us, except for those who have already muzzled themselves by feigning their lack of interest in the politics and current affairs of Singapore. Some may even say Brown has been asking for it all along and this is long in coming.

But it is truly unfortunate that the press – in this case TODAY – once again shows itself to be truly non-independent and that free press is Singapore is truly a myth and RSF is vindincated in rating Singapore as 140th out of 167 countries in the world in 2005.

So long, Mr Brown. I hope you will continue to write articles like you used to and put it up on your blog.
