Singapore decriminalizes homosexual sex after repealing a law inherited from the British colonial period
Summary by Ground News

Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced in August that his government planned to repeal Section 377A of the penal code. Law and Home Affairs Minister K Shanmugam said that the time has come to remove the law. But this concession to the city-state's LGBTQ community has been counterbalanced by a concession to social conservatives.Published 2 months ago
