I read up on one of Singapores top bloggers - Mr Brown from www.mrbrown.com who got himself in trouble with the government because of his sarcastic blogs. The minister blamed him for slanderous remarks hiding behind a pseudonym where no-one can find him.

Oh ya, Mr Brown.

He's one of the pioneer Bloggers in Singapore.

I didn't get a chance to read his controvesy post though... I don't know what its about but I know he got fired from the newspaper column..... I think he's on long holidays to another country now.

Couple of his supporters almost got into troubles too when they gathered at the MRT wearing Brown T-shirt to show support.....

There're already quite a couple of guys who got into troubles with the law for stuffs they posted on the internet.... 2 guys jailed and fined for racist remarks ... 1 guy almost sued for slendering one of the ministers and was forced to apologised publicly and removed his post on blog,etc.

Oh well, I guess there's no such thing as freedom of speech anymore....
