In response to media queries on the situation in Tibet, the MFA Spokesman said,
"Singapore supports the declared policy of the Chinese Government to protect the lives and property of its citizens from violent demonstrators with minimum use of force. We are opposed to the politicisation of the Olympics. We note the comment of Premier Wen Jiabao that China is prepared to hold dialogue with the Dalai Lama based on "One China" and the renunciation of violence, and we are relieved that the situation in Tibet is calming down."
