SINGAPORE (AFP) — Singapore should ease its ban on political videos and outdoor demonstrations as part of a gradual liberalisation of society, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said Monday.

But he said safeguards and restrictions will remain.

It is illegal to hold a public gathering of five or more people in Singapore without a permit, meaning demonstrations seldom occur.
