Is this an international practice or just uniquely Singapore? SPH wants to run a story on me, using me as the main object of the story. Without me, SPH has nothing to talk and nothing to sell. I want to use the video and I have to pay SPH? Nowadays with home made videos and digital storyboard creation, people can create their own videos, do their own interviews, and placed them in all social media platforms GLOBALLY. What value proposition does SPH has? What is it that SPH can do, that other platforms cannot do? If they can't answer these 2 questions, they are fossilised in this digital age. It sounds like thug bullying to me.
