Business Week International said it will close its Singapore bureau by the end of April as a cost-cutting measure. The New York-based magazine said its Tokyo or Hong Kong bureaus would cover South-East Asia.

The London-based Economist and the American magazine U.S. News and World Report closed their Singapore bureaus earlier this year, also to cut costs.

Foreign journalists have criticized a tough 1986 press law that allows the national government to impose sanctions on foreign journals it believes are interfering in local politics.
