Singapore lawyer and professor call for ban of online sites, allow government to sue citizens
written by Admin January 25, 2017


Singapore Management University’s law don, Eugene Tan, called for the government to ban online sites like theonlinecitizen and States Times Review claiming that the sites pass off falsehoods as “journalism”.

“With dozens of online platforms passing off falsehoods as “citizen journalism”, individuals are increasingly empowered by social media to harass organisations, and the possibility of amending the Protection from Harassment Act (Poha) to include entities such as the Government is a welcome one.”

Calling the social media scene “pervasive”, Law professor Eugene Tan claimed that the Singapore government have to waste “limited resources” defending itself from the “falsehoods” published in these websites:

“Otherwise, a public body might have to spend an inordinate amount of time and other limited resources to defend itself … In today’s world of pervasive social media, the ability of an individual to harass an organisation is real and the real threat posed by false information cannot be underestimated.”

The Law professor call for the Protection of Harassment Act (POHA) to be amended, or enact new censorship laws to “protect” and ban news information not endorsed by the government:

“It is not a question of whether entities require protection from harassment and falsehoods, but about protecting public bodies from having to devote resources in what may amount to a war of attrition, and ensure as little misinformation as possible. There is little social value in protecting speech designed to harass or perpetuate falsehoods.”

Singapore criminal lawyer Josephus Tan told state media TodayOnline to call for new laws to allow the government to sue citizens – the first in the world:

“It is not clear if the Derbyshire principle — a common law principle in Britain and other countries that bars a public body from suing a citizen for defamation so as not to discourage free speech — is applicable here. That is one reason the Attorney-General’s Chambers took the route of POHA in this case.”

With such teachers in the university, the quality of the graduates are suspect.

Governments are not infallible. For that academic to claim that the PAP government is infallible shows his ignorance. The university should fire him!

He should be banned from appearing on tv.

I am really surprised that he is teaching in an educational instituition. He should be working for the PAP which believes in silencing dissent.

They can simply give a warning to whoever caught surfing all those banned sites will be charged in court, jail and fine. This will definitely make sinkie pee on their pants.

The filter is by domain not IP address.

Stop being a hypocrite! Banning users from speaking up here is as bad as banning this website! Don't you think so?

Dishonorable son fixing honorable wei ling in a discrete and dishonorably sly manner.

In one of the emails released by Dr Lee, she said that she “and HL are at odds on a matter of principle” with regard to the commemoration, and that Mr Lee had “no qualms abusing his power to (have) a commemoration just one year after Lee Kuan Yew died”.

“LHL has no qualms (about) abusing his power to have a commemoration just one year after LKY died,” Dr Lee wrote.

“Let’s be real, last year’s event was so vivid, no one will forget it in one year,” she added and warned that “if the power that be wants to establish a dynasty, LKY’s daughter will not allow LKY’s name to be sullied by a dishonorable son.”

Protection of LHL from LWL's Harassment Wayang Act one.

In a statement on Facebook, Mr Lee said: “I am deeply saddened by my sister Dr Lee Wei Ling’s claim that I have abused my power to commemorate the one-year anniversary of Mr Lee Kuan Yew’s passing in order to establish a dynasty. The accusations are completely untrue."

Somehow both balless plp eugene tan and "tattoo haram" josephus tan were "obliviously quiet" about this incident.

What credibility does the law prof has left when he has already painted himself as an opportunistic barking dog for the pap?

While the "tattoo haram" aspiring politician josephus tan is an insult to the muslim community as permanent Tattoos are Haram in Islam and the Prophet of Allah has cursed the person who has tattoos done on them and the one on whom tattoos are done.

pap is insulting the muslim community by having "tattoo haram" as an mp or a member where "tattoo haram" can "haram" around officiating muslim events and shaking hands of muslim individuals while at the same time influencing young muslims to emulate his "tattoo haram" culture.

“The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) cursed the one who does tattoos, the one who has a tattoo done, the one who consumes riba (usury or interest) and the one who pays it, and he forbade the price of a dog and the earnings of a prostitute, and he cursed the image-makers.”

It is narrated on the authority of Ibn Mas’ood (Radiallahu Anhu) that he said, May Allah curse those who tattoo, have (their bodies) tattooed, those who request their eyebrows to be plucked and those who create gaps between their teeth. They are changing what Allah has created. Why should I not curse those whom Nabi (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) has cursed whilst it has been recorded in the Qur’aan? (Sahih al-Bukhari, Hadith #: 5943).


عن ابن مسعود – رضى الله عنه – قال لعن الله الواشمات ، والمستوشمات ، والمتنمصات والمتفلجات للحسن ، المغيرات خلق الله ، ما لى لا ألعن من لعنه رسول الله – صلى الله عليه وسلم – وهو فى كتاب الله

And Allah knows best

It's better to close one eye and let sleeping dogs lie than to open both lest you see your very own flaws.

Book of Proverbs, chapter 26, verse 17

"Like one who grabs a stray dog by the ears
is someone who rushes into a quarrel not their own."

Eugene, a lawyer? You must be joking. He is a blowjobber and would have his useless toilet paper removed from him in English courts for contempt of court, malpractice and a menace to society.
