SINGAPORE, June 14 (Bloomberg): Walt Disney Co.’s animated Pixar film ‘Lightyear’ won’t be able to be watched by kids in Singapore after the city-state’s Info-communications Media Development Authority gave it a NC16 rating because it includes a kiss between two female characters.

The South-East Asian nation issued the minimum 16-year-old age rating to the ‘Toy Story’ spin-off Tuesday, saying that while it is an "excellent animated film set in the US context, Singapore is a diverse society where we have multiple sensibilities and viewpoints.”
