As we heard in a previous episode, Bryan Choong was one of the plaintiffs in the constitutional challenge to Section 377A, the law which criminalized homosexuality in Singapore. In fact, he is probably better known for his role in the development of Oogachaga, the counselling service and one of Singapore's oldest registered queer organizations.
In this episode of Semua Kita, we speak to him for an insider's view into the early days of Oogachaga: from its humble beginnings as an underground support group, meeting in participants' bedrooms, to its expansion into a telephone hotline and chatrooms, to where it is today.
