Response to Media Queries on the Film "Fitna", 29
March 2008 |
|
|
|
|
When asked to comment on the release of the
film "Fitna" produced by Dutch MP, Geert Wilders, DPM and Minister for
Home Affairs Wong Kan Seng said: |
|
"The film "Fitna" is offensive to
Muslims. It is regrettable that the producer, Geert Wilders
chose to release it. |
|
Freedom of expression does not give anyone
the licence to insult another's religion or race. |
|
I am confident that Singaporeans will react
to this film in the same rational and calm manner as they did in similar
previous incidents, for example, the publication of the Danish cartoons.
They value the racial and religious harmony that we now enjoy." |
