The Attorney General has ex- plained the objects and reasons of this Bill, but I wish to avail my- self of the opportunity to address the Council on the general subject of noise and nuisances in Singa- pore. It must, I fear, be obvious that our 20th. century civilisation is the noisiest the world has yet known, and furthermore we in the tropics are particularly exposed to it because we are not in a position on account of the hent, to shut up | our windows to keep out the noise.
