Hong Lim not allowed, so go international.

Japan Today said:

In a statement Friday, Singapore police said they have informed Karuppaya the issue he was planning to raise in his speech ‘‘is a sensitive one impinging on race.’’

‘‘Singapore is a multi-ethnic society and maintaining community harmony is a key imperative that we must not take for granted,’’ it said.

We should keep tamil signages in and Japanese out. Why?

We have more Indians coming to SG (to work) than Japanese.

"Karuppaya’s friend Rethinam Sabapathy, 51, told Kyodo News that some street signs near the country’s biggest Hindu temples also fail to use Tamil."

I'm pretty sure Hindu's speak Hindi rather than Tamil.

The ancient Hindu Scriptures are in Sanskrit and Tamil..
