Media Development Authority (MDA) has released a statement today (28 May), stating that from 1 June 2013, all online news sites that report regularly on issues relating to Singapore and have significant reach among readers here will require an individual licence from the MDA.
It said that this will “place them on a more consistent regulatory framework with traditional news platforms which are already individually licensed”. Full story
