Redefining family. Rewriting policy. Reshaping norms.

That's what Pink Dot's "equality scorecard" seeks.

Pink Dot wants you to believe that the way family, housing, and laws on employment discrimination and end-of-life matters work in Singapore treats LGBTQ individuals unequally.

In Part 2, we show you why that's not the case.

Only one way to process your feelings. LGBTQ sexuality for children. Legitimising vigorous pushes to reshape how we think about marriage, sexuality and gender with the banner of charity status.

Pink Dot wants you to believe that this is equality.

We examine their claims, and leave you with one question: is Pink Dot's scorecard about equality, or cultural domination?

Singapore agrees that mums and dads matter.

So why are its LGBT activists pretending that they don't?

This piece exposes how same-sex parenting campaigns in Singapore quietly erase what every child needs - a mother and father - contrary to what our social and legal landscape says.

Singapore, You Are Being Groomed by Your Own National Media

What happens when national media trades objectivity for advocacy?

In Singapore, LGBT coverage has shifted from observation to endorsement.

By framing contested identities as settled truths, the press isnโ€™t just informing what we think about, itโ€™s reshaping how we think about it.

That was the claim from several non-Muslim voices in a recent televised panel on Gaza hosted by Lianhe Zaobao and Berita Harian.

But Muslim panellists differed. For many Muslims, this war isnโ€™t just about politics or law. Itโ€™s deeply personal. Emotional. And yes, even religious.

So why do we keep clinging to the fiction that this isnโ€™t a religious war?

๐Ÿ“ What do we lose by ignoring the sacred narratives that drive both sides?
๐Ÿ“ Why are we afraid to admit that these positions may be irreconcilable?
๐Ÿ“ And what would happen if we stopped defending tribal loyaltiesโ€”and instead practised active listening, made space for grief and belief, and committed to shared action?

This long-read explores the religious dimension of the Israeliโ€“Palestinian conflictโ€”on both sidesโ€”and challenges Singaporeans to reckon with how we talk about it, live with it, and live with each other.

In a society as diverse as ours, maybe peace doesnโ€™t come from pretending we agree.
Maybe it comes from refusing to turn disagreement into division.

Our Falling TFR: You Canโ€™t Throw Money at a Cultural Problem

Like many advanced economies, Singapore has tried to address falling birth rates with financial incentives. Just today, the Government rolled out new family support in the Budget. Raising children here is costly, and the practical relief helps.

But our latest article argues the deeper constraint now sits in expectations. Expectations of spouses. Expectations of children. Expectations shaped by competition, status and security.

When every marriage must be ideal and every child must be optimised, fewer families form, and fewer children are born. Emerging reproductive technologies may intensify this pressure.

Singapore can subsidise children.
But it canโ€™t subsidise belief in them.

Weโ€™re told kids mean suffering, lost freedom, and regret.
But if thatโ€™s true, why does the idea of family still refuse to disappear?

This 11 min explainer exposes the insidious philosophy convincing young people that children are a mistake, breaks down every modern argument against having children and gives you the clarity to think through them properly.

If you care about the future of family in Singapore, this is worth your time.

Descent Into Depravity: What Happens When We Destroy Marriage

First, marriage became about feelings.
Then permanence became optional.
Then exclusivity became old-fashioned.
Then children became negotiable.

This explainer traces how law reshapes culture, how small legal shifts weaken moral norms, and how redefining marriage quietly unravels permanence, fidelity, and parental duty.

Children don't need a father and mother?

Today weโ€™re often told that children donโ€™t really need both their mother and father. Love is love, the argument goes, and family structures are interchangeable.

But is that actually true?

A childโ€™s relationship to their mother and father is not a social preference, but a natural right. Long before governments existed, the bond between parent and child already did.

Drawing on natural rights theory, social science, and even the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, the article argues that children arenโ€™t accessories adults acquire to fulfil personal desires. They are persons with rights, including the right to be raised by the mother and father who brought them into the world.

Explainer: How the War in The Middle East Affects You

Weโ€™ve seen price hikes before. But this time, the bigger risk isnโ€™t how high prices goโ€ฆ itโ€™s whether they ever come back down.

This is what economists call โ€œprice re-flooring.โ€
A new - higher - baseline for prices.
And once that floor is set, everything builds on top of it. For good.

And that's bad.

Euthanasia is, quite literally, a matter of life and death.

- in 2026, A former diplomat and Administrative Officer in the Singapore Civil Service, Dileep Nair, who is also a board member of the National Council of Social Service, has just suggested that we explore Euthanasia in Singapore.
- in 2023, The Straits Times senior health correspondent, Salma Khalik said she believes it should be made legal. Both the Straits Times and CNA have pushed these ideas.
- in 2018, The Association of Criminal Lawyers of Singapore petitioned the Ministry of Law to decriminalise Euthanasia.

Should doctors ever be involved in ending a patientโ€™s life?

It also raises an important question:
Are we choosing death because weโ€™ve failed to provide better care?

Is modern sport still neutral, or has it picked a side?

The case of Jaden Ivey highlights a deeper shift happening across global athletics. From the NBA to international competitions, institutions are increasingly promoting specific social positions, while sidelining athletes who disagree.

But hereโ€™s the real question:
Can sport remain a fair, shared space if it enforces one worldview over others?

This isnโ€™t about one issue. Itโ€™s about consistency, fairness, and whether competition is still the priority.

A viral video of a commissioning parent telling his five-month-old son that his mother doesn't exist has sparked a global conversation. While the internet laughed, the baby cried.

While the US entertainment industry normalises commercial surrogacy, the EU and Italy are now classifying it as an assault on human dignity and a form of trafficking.

In Singapore, we face a choice: Do we fix our demographic crisis by "manufacturing" children without mothers or fathers by design? Or do we protect the older intuition that children are owed certain things by the adults who bring them into the world?

The Latest Antics From Singaporeโ€™s Hong-Lim Protestors

Protesters banned from raising Gaza at Hong Lim last month found a workaround: rebrand everything as "Anti-US Imperialism."
The result? One rally that somehow linked migrant wages, climate policy, the death penalty, and Palestinian solidarity under a single banner.
Desperation breeds innovation but here we see that not all innovation really works out.

From the disruption of Meet-the-People sessions to the harassment of individuals on our streets, a recognisable pattern of radicalisation is emerging within Singapore. What begins as moral conviction is rapidly evolving into a "permission to hate," where intimidation feels righteous, and neutrality is treated as complicity.

Weโ€™ve seen how this ends in other global citiesโ€”from London to Sydney. If the same pathway of moral absolutism and institutional coercion is being established here, why should we assume the outcome will be any different?
