"Fair" and "Objective" Media for you

I will reserve any comments for this particular fiasco, because I think the blatant disregard for a "fair" and "objective" media is staring right in the face.

Resources

Singabloodypore

This is one of the most consistently updated blogs on Singapore. The author not only provides a consistant position but it also comes with excellent resources. I highly recommend visiting it as often as possible.

The Singapore Commentator

A quaint and precise commentator on Singapore politics. Provides succinct insight into current affairs.

A XenoBoy in Sg

This blog is ridden with postmodernistic discourse and written with technical nomenclature. It does provide some amusing commentary but its highly expertised language may repulse some readers.

Molly Meek

Even a simple bimbo can understand thoroughly the politics of Singapore. Humourous but yet hits the bulleye each time.

Awakening Redux

This is one of the two blogs that belongs to blogger, Ernesto. A fan of Che Guevara, this blog contains his insights and views on Singapore.

Singapore Herald

This is second of the two blogs that belongs to blogger, Ernesto. This blog contains his insights and views on the media in Singapore.

Yawning Bread

This website is maintained by Au Waiping. His articles have at times appeared in the Forum section of the Straits Times and for good reason. A forceful and powerful speaker on politics and homosexuality in Singapore, Au has dissected the Singapore mindset rigorous on many issues.

Chemical Generation Singapore

A modest blog that has started writing about the political scene in Singapore. Perhaps this is one aspect of the "herd mentality" one has no qualms promoting.

Think Centre

If you have ever wondered where one can find the term "human rights" being spoken in Singapore, this website is the place. This multi-partisan NGO publishes many articles that pertains to human rights issues as well as politically-charged commentary for a "vibrant political society".

The Void Deck

While Singapore HDB void decks may be occupied with chain-smoking apathetic teenagers, this void deck proposes to act as a gathering for all the musings and rants of the typical Singaporeans. Filled with content derived from the writings of Singaporeans from all walks of life, this void deck is one place you want to hang out. It truly is one heck of a directory.

Wannabe Lawyer

Having stumbled on this blog recently, I can't attest to evaluating this blog fairly. However, the author does provide a wealth of opinions on matters of diverse topics: from politics in Singapore and America to technological freedom and economics. His commentary is astute and insightful.

Seksi Matashutyrmouf

Consisting of personal and political entries, this blogger has very interesting matters to speak of in the history, international relations, economics and even sex.

Convex Set

With his deep interest in philosophy, mathematics, religion, politics and other aspects of life, Jeremy Chen offers his own constructive interpretations which comes substantiated by his own informed logic and references. His writing brings out utmost clarity and precision.

Illusio

Akikonomu's persuasion of thinking critically has been exemplified by the articles she has written.

Deux Ex Machina

Apparently a new blog that has entered into the discussion of Singaporean society, it provides some insights that are at once funny, and also at times filled with angst. While it can't exactly be categorised as an objective site of discourse, it does reminds us of the personal existential frustrations one may face in Singapore.

Singapore Serf

This blog contains entries, deeply personal about a Singaporean who is experiencing an extremely turbulent moment in one's life. These reflections come across as not only thought-provoking but pertinent to us all.

Vox Leo

This blog hasn't been updated for some time, but previewing the past entries has illustrated a person concerned with the processes of public policy. Instead of taking "public policy" as a dirty word, it's important to engage with it and to contest an ongoing dialectical debate, something that has been lacking in other political blogs but willingly initiated by the author of this blog.

Skaris' Tidbits

Maintained by the president of a Sweden pro-liberal student group, the author, with a profound interest in Asia, has written on Singapore as well. Instead of being xenophobic about the interpretations from a foreign commentator, an outside perspective should be listened to as well.

Have you had your PAP smear test?

Defamatory? Or just plain foolish writings? On the contrary, I found John's entries quite entertaining and insightful at the same time. Go ahead and take the test.

The Reader's Eye

Perhaps in a bid to promote the arts and cultural scene, it is an essential task to list this blog. It features poetry by a Singaporean lawyer cum poet, Gilbert Koh.

Welcome to Rebrab Moor

Apologizing 'unreservedly' for his commentry, this blog features personal interjections on the happenings in Singapore that compel the author to dissent. Particularly vigorous and critical, the writings are valuable in their own right.

From a Singapore Angle

Formerly the Singapore Tsunami Relief Effort Blog, this blog is now maintained by two authors who studiously deliver a torrent of information regarding topics of all kind related to Singapore. Not only is there an elaborate list of links as well, but Victor Yang and Hui Chieh supply readers with reports, articles, commentaries and more.

Singapore Ink.

Another blog that is jointly contributed by several authors, Singapore Ink. provides consistent and updated commentaries on very diverse topics regarding Singapore. Another blog that boosts an impressive list of links, the blog is very much in touch with the Singapore online community and regularly interacts with them. Another tidbit is their replies to letters posted in the Forum section of the ST.

The Young Republic

Republic doesn't always have to imply an evil connotation. In this case, the Young Republic features a group of young Singaporeans who have converted their mailing list discussions to an informative blog containing their views on serious issues.

Matrix Singapore

An amusing piece on how the symbolism of the popular film, The Matrix relates to Singapore's socio-reality.
