Reach Singapore Facebook group “deletes” SG PM’s message
It was with great fanfare over the weekend when Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong left a message on Reach Singapore’s Facebook group.
Wrote The Straits Times,
Putting on his spectacles, PM Lee confirmed four friend requests (adding to the existing 281), checked out photos of Reach events and typed a message on the wall of one of its friends.
‘Welcome to Facebook! Glad to have you as a friend. Please tell your friends too,’ he typed, signing off as ‘LHL (for Reach)’.
The profile was created two weeks ago and was made public to all yesterday. It can be found by searching for ‘Reach Singapore’.
Reach chairman Amy Khor said it was a necessary platform to engage netizens.
But it seems that the “Welcome to Facebook! Glad to have you as a friend. Please tell your friends too” message left by Singapore’s Prime Minister has been “deleted” from the Reach Singapore Group.
So was Minister Teo Ser Luck and Dr Amy Khor’s messages.
Does this mean Reach Singapore have to organise another Facebook posting ceremony?
