Carmart and HWZ provide online news meh?

 

Anyway it specify that the website provide online local news that target local readers, foreign online news may not be included. I think yahoo news and google news should be included though, however, most of the local news in their website were actually from local source such as CNA or ST, hence not an independent reporting.

 

The big big one that seems to be missing from the list is TOC -

 

How can they not have 50k visitors per month?

 

Then also, how about the likes of Bernama, Bloomberg, Factiva etc etc?

 

Yep - and also, carmart and HWZ seem to be missing

 

This is purely insane -

 

I am also curious how they are going to enforce...

 

[Jman888]

Yahoo! news is included, partly because it also runs its own independently reporting. Unlike Google that only do the 'search' and compile of news.

 

Singapore to regulate Yahoo!, other online news sites

i'm curious of those personal blogs that receive high visitorships

 

so they cannot talk about news anymore, be it social or political?

[Lurpsexx]

maybe action action only lah

you see geylang there so crazy, mata come and sweep clean clean, next day dirty again, no use one

the orchard tower also one kind one

 

Bro, GL and OT are state sanctioned areas... occasional sweep is for wayang only.. GL Cheekon houses are state approved no? OT can last so long if AV sweep regularly?

 

The whole point in SG is about control, and who holds that control and who is controlled... That has always been the case since 1965....

 

This latest saga on news site licensing is on soft mud for THEM, bec they cannot have full control over the WWW, so is like bang gongs to warn the monkeys in the forest!

They target those that REPORT news (i.e. first hand). Talk and discuss is OK.
