BIASES AND FRAMING IDENTIFIED

Air safety framing: Singapore media prioritize the question of airspace control, a natural angle for a regional aviation hub.

Preference for institutional transparency: Singapore's focus on Beijing's information control steers the coverage toward a critical reading of Chinese practices.

Limited victim coverage: the human toll (one death, 13 injured) remains secondary to questions of air governance and official communication.
