Dear readers,
Following recent political developments in Singapore, the dictatorship is likely to take down States Times Review on false charges of propagating fake news and foreign funding.
As such, States Times Review will shut down voluntarily by today (Oct 8) ending its 51 months of operations as a news media.
Thank you for your support.
Hereon, the website, domain and its future content will now be the personal blog of Alex Tan.

‘No change to content’ of States Times Review, says founder just days after announcing ‘shutdown’
SINGAPORE — Just days after announcing that he is shutting down the States Times Review (STR) website, founder Alex Tan said he will continue putting up the same content on what will now be his “personal blog”.
Responding to TODAY’s queries via email, Mr Tan, who has been living in Sydney since March 2015, said on Wednesday (Oct 10): “STR will simply be the name of my blog. It is only a namesake… The content will not change.”

Comments on STR's FB page.......some bugger suggested Alex Tan might have been severely threatened, hence the drastic action taken to shut things down?
