Police on Wednesday warned activist Gilbert Goh against an online call he made to deface a poster of Singapore’s Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong at his protest event at Hong Lim Park, planned for Thursday.

In a public post Goh shared on his personal Facebook page on Saturday, 19 April, he encouraged participants of his planned “labour day protest” to “vent their anger” at a “huge poster” of PM Lee, which he planned to display at the event.

“You can spit, throw eggs, splash dog poo, draw graffiti and kick at the poster of our Prime Minister,” he wrote. “We don’t need to respect him at all… for he has never care [sic] for us one bit.”

Some 145 people liked his post, where he called PM Lee “a disgraced leader to all Singaporeans”, claiming that he “constantly side [sic] with all foreigners residing here and chastised his own people who incidentally have voted him into office”.

In a follow-up post on its own Facebook page, police spokespersons said Goh “was advised against carrying out such activities during the demonstration”, as they would risk committing criminal offences.

“Mr Goh was also advised to remove any online postings that called on participants of his demonstration to conduct activities that might be against the law,” they said.
