Talk:Islam in Singapore

Untitled
Are there any reports about reactions from the Singaporean Muslim community to the cartoons published in some Europeans newspapers, which sparked such global protests? There probably weren't any embassies torched in Singapore, but I can't find any reports at all in online Singapore media. I find it hard to believe there were no reactions at all...

 * I personally have not seen or heard of any signs of violent reactions here, which is perhaps so in-line with the overwelmingly conformist, law-abiding culture of Singapore? :D The government in Singapore appear to be taking full advantage of this episode to tell its citizens that the measured means of reporting by the country's papers reflects its respect of racial harmony, the very point which once left Singapore with a low freedom of the press rating (See, under the heading "The cartoon war: necessary provocation?" in particular). The Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura has spoken up on the issue , calling it an "intention...to incite Muslim anger unnecessarily", while at the same time vindicating existing practises in Singapore, where "no one is allowed to ridicule or cast aspersions on the faith of a person under the cloak of free expression."--Huaiwei 09:12, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
 * I found a Reuters report, a coffee shop put up a sign about denying service to Danish customers. It was asked to be taken down by the authorities following complaints. In Singapore, this kind of news is notable enough to be reported by the foreign press :D --Vsion (talk) 09:19, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
 * You may also be interested in the article Sedition Act (Singapore) that highlighted some incidents in Singapore last year related to the issue of free expression vs religous and racial sensitivity .--Vsion (talk) 01:04, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks guys, that's very enlightening. Sounds like in Singapore at least, things are not likely to get out of hands too quickly... JREL 12:56, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
