I have lived in Singapore and still have many friends there. That's one of the main reasons for me to submit this article.
I really liked the place, but for the complete control on media by the government and for this kind of measures to both stop criticism and "assure a peaceful society".
I'm really not sure if PAP would have the support it does if people could freely criticize it.
Another interesting related effect has also to do with how Singaporeans see themselves in relation to creativity and spontaneity due to the way things are structured there.
