本地公民组织功能八号氏族会(Function 8),将在明日(5月18日)下午4时30分至6时30分,在新民巷美景城(Midview City)的共同社(The  Agora),举行《防假消息法:弊多于利?》座谈会(POFMA: More Harm Than Good?)。

在本月8日晚,经过两天的激辩,国会以72票赞成,九票反对,三票弃权,三读通过《防止网络假信息和防止网络操纵法案》。该法在通过前即饱受争议,包括在野议员、学者、公民组织和媒体业者等,都担忧该法赋予部长过大权力来裁决何谓网络假消息,此外若不遵从部长指示的惩罚也极为严苛。

著作《自我审查:新加坡耻辱》的学者高梅兹(James Gomez)、律师裘佐柏(Khush Chopra)和政治工作者毕博渊受邀主讲,将与与会者一同探讨防假消息法“泼马”的影响。

究竟“泼马”的立法,是纯粹为了应付网络假消息,仰或可能变相成为钳制言论自由的工具?主讲者也会带大家看看其他国家如何应对假新闻,以及探讨我国宣称在打击假新闻上的立法举措“领先、大胆”,但究竟其他东盟国家会否效仿。

主讲者简介:

高梅兹是非营利组织“亚洲中心”(Asia Centre)的主管,也是传媒和人权领域专家,曾服务于国际非政府组织、跨政府机构、公共及私立大学、研究及智囊机构等。他持有澳洲蒙纳士大学博士学位、英国埃塞克斯大学硕士和新加坡国大社科学士学位。

至于裘佐柏(Khush Chopra)则是一名致力推动建设性改革的非执业律师,公认为是一名受瞩目的国内时事评论员之一,也勇于对他认为正确的信念站出来发声。裘佐柏在国大研习法律,也拥有波士顿莱彻法律与外交学院和巴黎国立高等学校的硕士学位。他的愿景是打造更公正平等的新加坡。

至于政治工作者毕博渊,曾涉猎电影和电视制作、特效和教学或担任顾问,在媒体界浸淫长达30年。而推动他积极参与社会工作的动力之一,乃是他希望他的孩子后辈们,在这片土地能生活在不仅限于少数群体,而是人人都能成就的未来。
