«Ministers have no time to watch movies.»That was Acting Culture, Community and Youth Minister David Neo's quip in Parliament on July 7, after Workers' Party MP Kenneth Tiong asked whether ministers had watched either the Teochew or Mandarin-dubbed version of Chinese hit film Dear You.While Neo's quip drew laughs in the House, the exchange came amid a wider, more serious discussion involving Singapore's decades-old restrictions on dialect content.In the latest Parliament sitting on July 7, the government's bilingual policy was one of the key topics that MPs raised questions about.Dear You, which became a box-office hit in mainland China, is a drama that follows a man who travels to Thailand to search for his lost-long grandfather. The film's limited Teochew-language screenings have sparked public pushback for the film to be screened in its original dialect for its commercial release, instead of its Mandarin-dubbed version, on account of the Government's bilingual policy.Tiong and Neo were among 11 members of the House who voiced their opinions on Dear You.

The Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) has approved 272 screenings of the Teochew version of Dear You and will consider approving more if the film distributor applies for additional screenings to meet audience demand.Tan Kiat How, Senior Minister of State for Digital Development and Information, shared this in Parliament on Tuesday (July 7) while responding to questions from MPs about IMDA's decision to screen the Mandarin-dubbed version, instead of its original Teochew version, on account of the Government's bilingual policy.«Guidelines on language use in media are implemented by IMDA. They support the Government's longstanding policy to promote Mandarin as one of four official languages, and have generally served us well,» the senior minister of state said, as he explained the authority's initial decision.But he also acknowledged that Singapore's language environment has evolved, pointing to how IMDA has exercised greater flexibility to allow more dialect content in films each year.The authority is reviewing the current film classification framework with respect to the use of dialect in films.
