Judging from how brisk weapons sales have been? Not only are these governments complicit, they are delighted at the death of Palestinians.
The settler colonists have so little love for thousand year old indigenous trees the metaphor almost writes itself. They will grow imported pine trees after they're done.
Your rendang looks really good!
Salam dari kbin!
They will very literally get cancelled by local government before any nutjob in the public gets to them.
If you skim the guidelines in the document I linked, one of the things artistes must do is submit a copy of all of their lyrics to be checked for inappropriate content. Then there's the clothing guidelines for male and female artistes, behavior guidelines, topic restrictions in banter etc.
After you pass all that, your ticket prices have to be adjusted to the local currency and buying power of the local market. 30% of your crew has to be local (understandable stipulation, but for Singapore you only need minimum 1 local to be hired and paid full salary to scale).

A part of me suspects that it's also a lot more troublesome to apply to perform in Malaysia.

And if you're holding your concert in Sabah/Sarawak you have to submit your application twice to PUSPAL and the state government. Yeah, it's not looking good for us.
We all know schools are so ineffectual when it comes to that and the students interviewed seem to have very well thought out and nuanced views on the issue.
I think the opinions of the students should hold more weight over that of the teachers and parents here. If they are alright with uniforms but want more relaxed hairstyle rules, that should be the way to go.
On the subject of parenting classes though, YES GOD PLEASE SOMEBODY DO IT.
Soulseek via Nicotine+, you can filter for file type and bitrate as well as avoid those assholes who lock all their files for trading.
I was in Ho Chi Minh a few weeks ago! It's a beautiful and exciting place.
Poker face by Lady Gaga! Anything that lets you shamelessly yell to be honest.
When will they leave this family alone ffs?!
