The Online Citizen (TOC) has taken down its website at exactly 9.08am. If you are wondering, yes the timing is deliberate.


We have also deactivated our social media platforms, not because we agree that Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA)’s demand is justified but we do not wish to complicate matters at this point in time.


We will be filing a judicial review against IMDA’s order for TOC to suspend its operation of the social media platforms as they are not part of the declaration that it signed with IMDA in 2018, neither has IMDA mentioned anything in regards to this at any point.


Then-MDA publicly stated, “The registration of TOC Ltd is intended to ensure that the company does not receive foreign funding for the provision, management and/or operation of the TOC website, which is engaged in the propagation, promotion or discussion of political issues related to Singapore.”


Nothing of its press release speaks about operation of social media platforms.


Furthermore, there also does not seem to be any justification for IMDA’s order to have TOC cease its operation outside of Singapore as the issued class license is solely for the purpose of broadcasting in Singapore.

Suppression. No democracy.

Straits Times is under PAP. National Library controlled by PAP. Parliament is used to mock Opposition.
