摘要

摘要本文考察了新加坡殖民时代限制言论自由的法律,以及旨在压制对国家批评的最新法律。它将现行法规与殖民地法律联系起来,表明新加坡限制言论自由的两项基本法令源于英国殖民主义。报告最后指出,新加坡在某些方面确实存在言论自由,因为言论自由仍然是国家的唯一权限,国家自由行使言论自由,但利用新加坡司法系统否认其公民享有言论自由。

The neo-colonized entity: Examining the ongoing significance of colonialism on free speech in Singapore
ABSTRACT This paper examines the use of colonial era laws to restrict free speech in Singapore, along with more recent laws that are meant to stifle criticism of the state. It draws a link between current statutes and colonial laws, showing that two of the fundamental decrees restricting free speech in Singapore originated from British colonialism. It concludes by pointing out that free speech does exist in Singapore in some respects, in that it remains the sole purview of the state which exercises free speech liberally but uses the Singaporean justice system to deny the same for its citizens.
