#233 - SG extending F1 contract & Shanmugam calls Amos Yee‘s supporters “hypocrites”
Description
Minister of Transport S Iswaran recently revealed that SG is in talks to continue hosting the F1 night race next year. Having only discussed this topic on YLB #165 in June, we revisit the debate of whether SG should move on from the F1 race. Elsewhere, Shanmugam wrote a Facebook post that called out the “hypocrisy” of media outlets and activists that had supported Amos Yee when he was convicted for wounding religious feelings in SG many years ago. Is there any merit to his call-out?
