Singapore's media freedom reach greater 'heights'
Link: Annual Worldwide Press Freedom Index 2006
The 2006 Annual Worldwide Press Freedom is out. Singapore, ranked 140th in 2005, has dropped 6 places to 146th! A 'first-world' country with third-world press freedom.
Quoted directly from the website:
Some of the worst-ranked countries fell even lower. Singapore (146th) slipped six places because of new legal action by the government against foreign media.
Finland is number 1, while North Korea not surprisingly is last.
