The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) confirmed this morning that Research Social Dynamics' Julien Blanc will not be allowed to enter Singapore, especially if he's going to conduct or promote his work, which involves teaching racist and sexist tactics for picking up women.
This was announced via email to Charis Mah, founder of the petition "Keep Julien Blanc and Real Social Dynamics (RSD / RSDnation) out of Singapore", which to date has garnered close to 8,500 supporters.
In the email, Joyce Tan from the MHA's Community Partnership & Communications Group, wrote, "The Immigration & Checkpoints Authority, in consultation with the Ministry of Social and Family Development, will not allow Mr Blanc into Singapore, especially if he is here to hold seminars or events that propagate violence against women or to participate in other objectionable activities in Singapore."
The email was CC-ed to both the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority and the Ministry of Social and Family Development.
Singapore is not the first country to launch a boycott against the misogynistic agenda-laden Julien Blanc and his RSD cronies — Australia, Brazil and the UK have all barred him from entering.
