If this is resolved, it is thanks to Hugh Harrison and not MCCY. They did not speak up for us when we wanted them to. And they wonder why Singaporeans are disappointed with the authorities...

Responding to Non-Constituency Member of Parliament (NCMP) Dennis Tan's questions on the National Arts Council's (NAC) withdrawal of funding for the book, "State of Emergency" by Jeremy Tiang, Minister for Culture, Community and Youth Grace Fu told parliament today that the book "did not meet the funding requirements mutually agreed upon as the content in the book deviated from the original proposal."

$880,000 bin center by NAC. Controversial $500,000 donation to ASEAN Football Federation. Multiple financial lapses at People's Association including unauthorised payments. What do these have in common? They all come under MCCY and its ministers Grace Fu and Sim Ann, together with sidekick selfie king Baey Yam Keng.

Regarding the MCCY's guidelines on the use of the late Mr. LKY name and image, it should cut BOTH ways. The man is dead, let him RIP. Regardless of how controversial he might have been is a matter of perspective. PAP of today should try facing the mandate based on your own merits. Other should restrain themselves from satirisng him in any way. It is not a matter of freedom of speech. It is what we Asian hold close to our heart: RESPECT.

Minister for Culture, Community and Youth Lawrence Wong told reporters today that Singapore's investments into its sports infrastructure and athletes is paying off, citing the many achievements of local athletes and the high viewership of the SEA Games event online and offline.

THE spotlight may be on Minister for Culture, Community and Youth Lawrence Wong, but all eyes were on two silat fighters as they showed off their moves at the Malay Heritage Centre last night. Mr Wong was there to launch this year's Malay CultureFest, a three-week-long festival showcase for traditional and contemporary Malay arts.
