US comedian Sammy Obeid has been issued a correction direction under the Protection from Online Falsehoods and Manipulation Act (POFMA) regarding the social media posts he made regarding his cancelled Singapore show.«Obeid's account of protracted back-and-forth interactions with the Government is inaccurate,» said the Ministry of Digital Development and Information (MDDI) on Monday. The ministry explained that the Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) never discussed his script or content with him or his representatives.«IMDA never requested edits, nor did it suggest removing any material,» MDDI stated. «The cancellation had nothing to do with the event.»On Aug 27, Obeid announced that his stand-up show on Aug 31 has been cancelled and accused authorities here of trying to censor it.He told his Instagram followers that he had toned down his script - originally focused on the ongoing war in Gaza - and only referenced Palestine and Israel a few times.He said his script went through multiple rejections afterwards and was revised a few times until he was allegedly told there was no time for more resubmissions.
