Statement from Ambassador Jonathan Kaplan on the Repeal of S377A

The United States welcomes today’s repeal of section 377A of Singapore’s penal code and the decriminalization of consensual sexual relations between men. We applaud Singapore for taking this significant step towards creating an inclusive society free of discrimination. This leadership will help to end the stigma against LGBTQI+ people not only here in Singapore but within the region and around the world.
