Here is another analogy, pls go after the guy who posted an advertisement illegal on HDB notice board, don't remove the notice board. This is not H1N1 which the whole poultry community is culled.
2. TNP is wanbao (晚報) in disguise by writing in ang moh and selling during lunch time. That TNP reporter who contacted you didn't appear to be SPH staff but an agent or contractor who went undercover to "obtain" news for big companies, as big media companies are not "convenient" to probe "grey" area. So, if there is any fault, it is the contractor, just like the recent smear marketing saga by StarHub's contractor. The blame was on the contractor.
4. If SBF is closed, where should we obtain GL information from ? From overseas ? From pub ? Isn't it the same as rather than the student learn sex matters from internet or friend, MOE stepped in to teach them in school. Not every cheongster here is rich or outgoing to frequent pub to find info. SBF levels the "playing field". Besides, SBF is a typical forum that re-balances the bargaining power from service provider to consumer, just like HWZ, sgcarmart, etc.
Without SBF, samsters will have to rely on OKT or the one with knowledge (in property and insurance sectors, they're called agent who charge handsome fee) to choose WL. The current policy is against "agent". Can you imagine we spend $150 only to kena a "Care-ren" ? Not all of us are rich and can afford to "treat it as a learning curve" for our only monthly outing. A satisfying customer is better than an angry customer.
5. Actually, garment wasn't against SBF per se judging from the parliamentary exchanges between Mr Wong Kan Seng (Minister for Home Affairs) and ooposition MP Mr J. B. Jeyaretnam, in 1999. Minister defended pragmatic policy towards prostitution. However, now is a new generation of ministers at helm. So, hopefully the same perspective could be accorded to SBF.
6. Samsters should not blame ICA for FL presence in our shore. Whether ICA "pang chance" or not, whether they wayang in the raid or not, I would rather ICA, SPF and AV "pang chance". Can you imagine ICA catch every traveller on GST quota, chewing gum, etc ? And every airline catch us on luggage weight limit ?
7. Don't blame SMRT, garment, minister, scholars on the MRT breakdown. The timing was unfortunate and it coincided with SBF news. Let the investigators do their job. Do we blame SBF boss, garment, minster, scholars when someone post under-age material in SBF ? Do we blame SBF boss, garment, minster, scholars for allowing SBF to exist ?
8. There are good and bad sections in SBF. TNP and stakeholders should be balance and holistic in their observation about SBF. Read how Sticky and members (like Dr Tan) help samsters in Sexual Health Issues, Matters of the Heart, who otherwise are clueless and nobody to turn to. Some samster also pai sei or unwilling to seek help unless anonymously. Which avenue could they seek help on "grey" area ? Meet MP session ?

Your observations are I'm sorry to say very poor n off target
1. That letter was shown by Sammyboy to show he cooperates with police.
At no time did spf in letter say sbf close down or sbf must change.
2. Reporter of cos sph staff la. So obvious!
You think he's independent contractor? Or PI?
He's doing his job. He's nt digging around for fun.
He's asking so he can write his article
Since when inconvenient for them to probe grey areas??
4. Even if sbf is t bible of prostitution, t gov want to block it, they will. You cannot get yr info, they don't care.
5. Debate is over prostitution not sbf.
6. of cos ica plays a big part in so many whores coming in. N they deliberately let t women nt whores cm in ok
7. Of cos blame t whole lot. If not who's responsible???
They tock cock so much last time, now got problem again, its no ones fault?
8. Since when tnp's guiding ethos is balance?
Is lkys life n death balanced reporting? Do you think they'll start now??
