SINGAPORE (Reuters) - A Singapore radio station was
fined for organizing a contest in which women were
asked to remove their bra as quickly as possible from
under their clothes.

Singapore's Media Development Authority said
state-owned MediaCorp Radio would be fined S$15,000
($9,800) for broadcasting "exploitative and
inappropriate content" in its program "No Bra Days
with the Muttons" in March.

"The two DJs had made sexually suggestive comments on
how fast the bras were removed, as well as the color,
design and cup size of the bras, and the size of the
girls' breasts," the regulator said in a statement
late on Monday.

The Media Development Authority said the women were
also asked to pose with their bras for videos that the
radio station posted on its Web site and on the
video-sharing YouTube Web site.

MediaCorp officials were not immediately available to comment.

They cane for graffiti and fine mega for dropping a piece of paper.
