Singapore has ordered social media platforms to block 14 posts, likely from China, that targeted the Indian community and undermined the nation's multiculturalism. The government stated these foreign-originated videos attacked Singapore's multiracial society, aiming to divide people by race, which is unacceptable and a threat to social cohesion.

The authorities said the content selectively used images and footage of crowded streets to back claims that Singapore is "overcrowded" with Indians.

Investigations reveal that the divisive posts likely originated from a China-based platform, minister says.
