  • Singapore's Chinese-Speaking and Their Perspectives on Merger
    Chinese Southern Diaspora Studies, Volume 5, 2011-12 南方華裔研究雜志, 第五卷, 2011-12 “Flesh and Bone Reunite as One Body”: Singapore’s Chinese- speaking and their Perspectives on Merger ©2012 Thum Ping Tjin* Abstract Singapore’s Chinese speakers played the determining role in Singapore’s merger with the Federation. Yet the historiography is silent on their perspectives, values, and assumptions. Using contemporary Chinese- language sources, this article argues that in approaching merger, the Chinese were chiefly concerned with livelihoods, education, and citizenship rights; saw themselves as deserving of an equal place in Malaya; conceived of a new, distinctive, multiethnic Malayan identity; and rejected communist ideology. Meanwhile, the leaders of UMNO were intent on preserving their electoral dominance and the special position of Malays in the Federation. Finally, the leaders of the PAP were desperate to retain power and needed the Federation to remove their political opponents. The interaction of these three factors explains the shape, structure, and timing of merger. This article also sheds light on the ambiguity inherent in the transfer of power and the difficulties of national identity formation in a multiethnic state. Keywords: Chinese-language politics in Singapore; History of Malaya; the merger of Singapore and the Federation of Malaya; Decolonisation Introduction Singapore’s merger with the Federation of Malaya is one of the most pivotal events in the country’s history. This process was determined by the ballot box – two general elections, two by-elections, and a referendum on merger in four years. The centrality of the vote to this process meant that Singapore’s Chinese-speaking1 residents, as the vast majority of the colony’s residents, played the determining role.

  • United Nations Human Rights Council Universal Periodic Review 38TH SESSION of the UPR WORKING GROUP (3 – 14 MAY 2021) Contribu
    United Nations Human Rights Council Universal Periodic Review 38TH SESSION OF THE UPR WORKING GROUP (3 – 14 MAY 2021) Contribution by Reporters Without Borders (RSF) an NGO with special consultative status, on press freedom and the freedom to inform in Singapore 1. Summary of the press freedom situation The press freedom situation in Singapore further declined in 2020. According to the World Press Freedom Index established by RSF, in which Singapore now ranks 158 out of 180 countries after dropping seven places in a year’s time, the situation is now classified as “very bad”. This deterioration was largely propelled by the adoption of an “anti-fake news” law that allows the government the power to determine whether statements made online are true or false by ordering media outlets, digital platforms, and ordinary users to publish mandated “corrections”, or to remove access to the content completely. This latest piece of legislation further exacerbates an already poor situation, in which the People’s Action Party government has access to broad powers to censor journalistic content or apply pressure on mainstream media outlets. Powerful politicians have been known to use defamation suits to silence critics and political opponents. Vague and ambiguous “OB markers” (for out-of-bounds markers) keep journalists and Singaporeans in a state of uncertainty, encouraging fear and self-censorship. During its second review in 2016, Singapore accepted one hundred and seventeen (117) recommendations. Among these recommendations, Singapore accepted only a few recommendations related to freedom of expression1, and none affecting specifically the media, despite the fact that several States had made recommendations in direct relation to the freedom of the media2, including the removal of discriminatory media guidelines, the reform of the regime of defamation offences, the elimination of media censorship, and the prevention of self-censorship.

  • Appellant's Contact Dr Thum Ping Tjin Email: Pingtjin.Thum@Newnaratif
    Appellant’s Contact Dr Thum Ping Tjin Email: [email protected] 9 May 2018 Mr Heng Swee Keat Minister for Finance #10-01 and #06-03 The Treasury 100 High Street Singapore 179434 By Email, Fax (6337 4134) & Hand Dear Sirs, APPEAL AGAINST REJECTION OF NAME APPLICATION BY “OSEA PTE LTD” 1. We refer to the rejection of the abovementioned name application (transaction no. ) (the “Application”) by the Registrar of Companies, under the purview of the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (“ACRA”) on 11 April 2018. 2. The Application was made by the director designate of OSEA Pte Ltd, Dr Thum Ping Tjin, on 8 February 2018. OSEA Pte Ltd was to be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Observatory Southeast Asia Limited (“OSEA UK”), a company incorporated in the United Kingdom. At present, OSEA UK owns and manages the New Naratif website (www.newnaratif.com). 3. OSEA Pte Ltd’s planned activities would have included organising discussion fora, workshops, and other events in Singapore, such as “Democracy Classroom” sessions. OSEA Pte Ltd would also have provided editorial services to New Naratif. 4. We make our appeal against the rejection of the Application pursuant to Section 27(12C) of the Companies Act. 5. In its rejection email dated 11 April 2018 to the registered filing agent for the Application, ACRA cited Section 27(12A) of the Companies Act as its basis for doing so, in the following terms: “Your application for OSEA PTE. LTD. has been rejected due to s27(12A) of the Companies Act. Thank you.” 6. We note that the Section 27(12A) of the Companies Act states: “The Registrar must refuse to approve an application to reserve a name […] as the name of an intended company if the Registrar is satisfied that — 1 (a) the name is for a company that is likely to be used for an unlawful purpose or for purposes prejudicial to public peace, welfare or Good order in SinGapore; or (b) it would be contrary to the national security or interest for the company to be registered.” 7.

    Written Representation 83 Name: Thum Ping Tjin Historian and also the founder, Managing Director, and Research Director of New Naratif. Research Fellow in History and Coordinator of Project Southeast Asia at the University of Oxford (2014-present) Received: 28 Feb 2018 Submission to the Select Committee on Deliberate Online Falsehoods, Parliament of Singapore Dr. Thum Ping Tjin 26 February 2018 Summary The definition of deliberate online falsehoods (or “fake news”) is extremely ambiguous. Sources are difficult to trace, difficult to prosecute, and domestic legislation will not stop foreign actors outside of Singapore. New legislation is not necessary as there is already existing legislation which can address “fake news”, and anyway there is already a surfeit of laws in Singapore which suppress free speech. Most of all, “fake news” has not, historically, had much of an impact in Singapore — with one major exception: the People’s Action Party government has, historically, spread “fake news” for narrow party-political gain. Given these problems, any solution to the problem of “fake news” must therefore start with the education of Singaporeans to be more skeptical of all information, regardless of source; the diversification of responsible news sources; and greater transparency in government and accountability for those in official positions. Accordingly, the chief measures recommended to combat “fake news” are: 1. The focusing of media literacy education on teaching Singaporeans to understand how the information industry works, to be politically aware, and to be skeptical of all information, regardless of source; 2. The repeal of the Newspaper and Printing Presses Act 1974, and reform/repeal of other laws which suppress free speech; 3.

Unas veces con ideas, que en un principio sonaban absurdas y otras con una simple llamada de teléfono porque habían visto una película o un documental que hablaba de la radio. Pero no sólo se ha tratado de información, cuanto más baja era mi moral, más fuerte era su apoyo. Siempre encontraban alguna forma de que viese la parte buena. Especial atención a mi familia, a mi madre sobre todo. Esas llamadas a altas horas de la noche, donde conseguía sacarme una sonrisa pese a mi desesperación. El Innombrable, así es como lo hemos bautizado en casa. Lo empecé, lo perdí, lo dejé aparcado, lo volví a coger, y así hasta hoy. Gracias por aguantar mi mal humor cuando me quedaba atascada y no sabía por dónde continuar. Gracias porque sin ti este proyecto no sería una realidad, porque sin ti, seguramente yo nunca hubiera puesto un pie en esta Escuela. De Económicas a Telecomunicaciones, menudo cambio, quien me lo iba a decir. Eres mi referente, y espero algún día poder inculcar esos mismos valores que tú nos has enseñado a mis hijos.

  • An Exploration of Social Identity: the Structure of the BBC News-Sharing Community on Twitter Abstract
    An Exploration of Social Identity: The Structure of the BBC News-Sharing Community on Twitter Julius Adebayo, Tiziana Musso, Kawandeep Virdee, Casey Friedman, and Yaneer Bar-Yam New England Complex Systems Institute 238 Main Street Suite 319, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02142, US (Dated: August 20, 2013) Abstract Online social media influence the flow of news and other information, potentially altering col- lective social action while generating a large volume of data useful to researchers. Mapping these networks may make it possible to predict the course of social and political movements, technology adoption, and economic behavior. Here we map the network formed by Twitter users sharing British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) articles. The global audience of the BBC is primarily organized by language with the largest linguistic groups receiving news in English, Spanish, Rus- sian and Arabic. Members of the network primarily “follow” members sharing articles in the same language, and these audiences are primarily located in geographical regions where the languages are native. The one exception to this rule is a cluster interested in Middle East news which includes both Arabic and English speakers. We further analyze English-speaking users, which differentiate themselves into four clusters: one interested in sports, two interested in United Kingdom (UK) news—with word usage suggesting this reflects political polarization into Conservative and Labour party leanings—and a fourth group that is the English speaking part of the group interested in Middle East news. Unlike the previously studied New York Times news sharing network the largest scale structure of the BBC network does not include a densely-connected group of globally inter- ested and globally distributed users.
