They are the main venue for Singaporean performers to get on TV or in movies; they run the English-language TV channel that is supposed to appeal to ex-pats, as well as the channels that create and air local TV dramas, always recycling the same performers. And I guess they produced the Singapore is My Home video as well.

BTW, you can experience the 6-minute version of Singapore is My Home if you google it and have a LOT of patience to sit through it.

Those we mount this propaganda on MediaCorp can only be described as MORONS WITH COW DUNG AS BRAINS.

It was so OFFPUTTING that one gets fedup with those nimcompoops who put it on TV – the ‘friennnnnnds’ bit is so jarring, the Kit Chan sound byte always makes me mentally asking Simon Cowell to X her out of the competition!
