ON THE NATIONAL LIBRARY BOARD CENSORING, WITHDRAWING AND PULPING BOOKS WHICH IT CONSIDERS OBJECTIONABLE



Has 50 years of nation building come down to this? When, oh when, can Singaporeans be trusted to decide what they can read and cannot read? Are we still the Nanny State where the government or governmental bodies choose to put blinkers on our eyes, just in case we see things which they deem non-Kosher?

Withdrawing and banning books is already bad enough, but destroying and pulping them?
