SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/Asia News Network): Singapore-born comedian Jocelyn Chia’s comments about a missing Malaysia Airlines plane have been criticised by Singapore’s Foreign Minister Vivian Balakrishnan and the Republic’s High Commissioner to Malaysia.
In a tweet posted on Thursday, Mr Balakrishnan said: “I am appalled by her horrendous statements. She certainly does not speak for Singaporeans. We treasure our ties with family and friends in Malaysia and are sorry for the offence and hurt caused to all Malaysians.”
