About Straight Times Forum

Have you ever felt so passionately about an issue that you took the time to compose a well-thought out letter to the Press, only to receive the following reply?

"Thank you for writing to us. We do appreciate your making the effort.

We receive 70 letters on average each day. Limited space means we can publish only about a dozen every weekday. This means having to make often-difficult editorial judgments on which letters to publish.

We regret we are unable to publish your letter, and hope you will appreciate the constraints on space we face every day. We hope you will continue taking an interest in the Forum Page."


Inspired by Derek Wee and fueled by our own frustrations of having countless well-written letters on critical issues rejected and never seeing the light of day, we have set up this page especially for you.

Email your letters to sgtforum@gmail.com today!
