There is absolutely nothing independent about The Independent Singapore. TISG has always been a Pro Indian Anti Chinese Biased News Site run by Indian Snake Kumaran M. Pillai. Example of a recent article he published putting words into LHL mouth by claiming:
"PM Lee reiterates that Singapore is not a Chinese society, ahead of his trip to China"
LHL did not reiterate that at all. Only a Indian Snake is reiterating. LHL was interviewed by China's People Daily and actually gave a good, tactful and sensible response. This Indian Snake Kumaran M. Pillai twisted a few LHL words from the long interview out of context and published an article out of it with a hidden agenda.
