SINGAPORE: The Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) has asked the artist behind a controversial mural of a cigarette-holding samsui woman to delay any changes to his work while the authority reviews its stance on amending the mural.
On June 21, The Straits Times (ST) reported the online outcry over URA’s order to erase a smoking cigarette from the mural, located at 297 South Bridge Road, opposite Maxwell MRT station.
