Tan Kiat How on prohibited political advocacy by performing artistes
The government recognises the humanitarian impact of international conflicts and that artistes may wish to express concern for those affected. Such expressions are not prohibited but should not undermine public order, national security or stability in Singapore. This condition is made clear in the Arts Entertainment Classification Code issued by the Infocomm Media Development Authority. Senior Minister of State for Digital Development and Information Tan Kiat How highlighted this approach in reply to an MP’s questions in parliament on Thursday (Sep 10). He stressed that Singapore should not be used by foreigners as a platform to further political causes, including those relating to conflicts or political issues overseas.
