Default Singapore to decriminalise sex between men

[Singapore to decriminalise sex between
men - but PM also vows to safeguard
institution of marriage

Lee Hsien Loong said Singapore is a traditional
society with conservative social values
and promised to "uphold and safeguard
the institution of marriage" between a man
and a woman, saying only those marriages
are recognised in the city state.]

Lee Hsien Loong announced the government will repeal Section 377A of the penal code, a colonial-era law that criminalises sex between men.
Nice way to mitigate their own responsibilty in maintaining their discriminatory ways.
"Colonial era" my butt.
