Evidence supporting the view that our administration is not gay

From The Economist's Singapore Briefing June 2005:

Not so gay

Though Singapore's ministers clamour for more tourists, it seems that this may not extend to gay visitors. Police have banned one of the region’s largest gay gatherings, the annual August beach party called “The Nation”, due in Singapore for a fifth year. A police statement explained that the event was expected to be a big gay party, which is “contrary to public interest”.

The decision to end this annual tradition comes three months after Balaji Sadasivan, the junior health minister, argued that such events could generate a rise in local HIV-infection rates. Stuart Koe, the organiser of The Nation, accused the government of discriminating against gays. The festival will now take place in Phuket, the Thai resort island.

Someone turn on the lights, please.
