"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, freedom of the press is also one of the things that were discussed by the PAP. It appears as if the BBI Task Force was listening to the discussion. One of the recommendations in the BBI Report is to outlaw defamation as a way of fighting corruption. Whistleblowers and media reporting are curtailed because media personalities fear being sued by cartels that have a lot of resources at their disposal. They use the same to fight the media so that their bad manners are not exposed by members of the fourth estate. I am happy that the PAP discussed that. This House needs to sponsor a Bill to actualise this because it is the game changer as far as fighting corruption is concerned."
