I cannot understand the law or the concept that foreigners cannot interfere with domestic politics.
We need to understand what is interfering and what is domestic politics.
If a foreigner said that it is morally wrong to have the prime minister's wife appointed to hold the top position in the sovereign wealth fund, is this interfering in domestic politics?
If another foreigner said that this practice is perfectly all right, is it interfering?
Does it matter if the interference is for or against the practice of the government?
If a foreigner said that Singapore is a repressive society, is he interfering in domestic politics?
If another foreigner (e.g. Nas Daily) said that Singapore is a free and democratic society, is he interfering in domestic politics?
It is very difficult to draw the line - and the line seemed to be drawn quite arbitrarily and unfairly by the people in power.
The "interference in domestic politics" should be confined to specific examples of actual abuse and interference in the election process, and should not be use for expressing opinions about what is good or bad in the society.
