Hong Lim Park (Speakers Corner)

Best known for Speaker's Corner

What we say:

This green space in the middle of Chinatown is best known for its Speakers Corner, the one place in Singapore where free speech is allowed.

This works better in theory than in practice and you can read the sign with all the rules for a good laugh.

Requirements include that you must register your intention to speak, you must be a Singaporean citizen and you may not discuss religion.

Further dissuading potential revolutionaries, CCTV cameras were installed in 2009.

(Remotely sensible, non-ranting comments are much appreciated. If you don't like somewhere, please explain why -- it's all far more helpful for others that way.) Serial ranters, loons and spammers will be banished!

Rating (out of 10):

Please note reviews are now pre moderated. Not all reviews will be published and submissions may be edited for clarity, typos and style before they appear. Ranting tirades, spam and anything else that really belongs somewhere else won't make the cut. If you want to rant, go to Thorntree.
