So I decided to see what our local papers had to say about that topic. Turning to page H-4 in the Home Section of The Straits Times, my eyes quickly scanned down to the article in question.
It's interesting to note that the Reuters slant seems to be that the government may be considering decriminalising consensual sex between men, whereas the Straits Times version seems to reinforce the current practice of maintain the law but not proactively pursue enforcement.
So my take? Glacial pace to liberalisation lor. That's what I gathered from the Straits Times article which says a bit about LKY's idea and yet doesn't say that much either; a bit of LPPL here.
