SINGAPORE : Singapore's arts and cultural scene has blossomed,
and gained some international recognition, says Information,
Communications and the Arts Minister Lee Boon Yang.
At the Ministry's annual thank-you dinner for some 600 committee
members, Dr Lee thanked them for their participation and
contributions in giving the citizen's viewpoint to issues such as
the recommendations of the Censorship Review Committee last
year.
Dr Lee said while Singapore is now on the world arts map, there are
still challenges ahead to bring more Singaporeans and tourists to
the arts.
There will also be more to look forward to, when the Supreme Court
and City Hall buildings are transformed into a world-class art
gallery. - CNA
