Confounding that Pink Dot is allowed to promote their agenda: Lawrence Khong

SINGAPORE — With the sixth annual Pink Dot rally about to be held at the Speakers’ Corner tomorrow (June 28), Faith Community Baptist Church (FCBC) senior pastor Lawrence Khong has questioned why the Pink Dot rally is given “leeway to promote their alternative lifestyles in such a high profile way”. He made these comments in a statement to the media.

The Pink Dot rally is held in support of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community.

Mr Khong also called upon the Government to “draw a clear line on where they now stand with regard to this moral issue”, and referred to a speech delivered by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong in 2007 about 377A.

Previously, Mr Khong had called for “the church to work with like-minded groups (such as Muslims) to register our opposition (to the Pink Dot event) before it is too late”.

Below is the statement in full:

I find it totally confounding that Pink Dot is allowed to promote their agenda. I find it even more disconcerting that the event is being used as a platform of public persuasion to push their alternative lifestyle.

A spokesperson for Pink Dot publicly declared the organisers’ objective to “change society’s attitude”. He went on to say that “when society’s attitude has changed, all these laws (377A) and regulations will naturally also change ... Pink Dot has always been a social movement to change hearts and minds.”

This is no good for Singapore. Why then is our government giving Pink Dot public space to push their agenda and grow their movement? This simply

does not square with what Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said in his 2007 Parliamentary speech on 377A:

“Homosexuals work in all sectors, all over the economy, in the public sector and in the civil service as well. They are free to lead their lives, free to pursue their social activities. But there are restraints and we do not approve of them actively promoting their lifestyles to others, or setting the tone for mainstream society.”

So, why are we giving Pink Dot leeway to promote their alternative lifestyles in such a high profile way? I would like to see our government leaders draw a clear line on where they now stand with regard to this moral issue. The gay activists will not stop at just repealing 377A. They will push for more. Ultimately, they want to redefine Love, redefine Marriage, and redefine Family. Is this the kind of Singapore we can be proud of and want for our children? I feel sad at the thought of Singapore in moral decline.
