Voluntary legal help / counsel needed. Anyone ?

[bb88]

I'm not legally trained. I'd like to ask legal sifu here if the statements like :
"ABC has done it again."
=> if this is just expression of a fact, then i don't see anything wrong with it. the statement only states action and there's nothing defamatory about it.

"I think its disclosure policy is questionable"
=> the usage of the word "think" is an opinion and not a statement. basic human rights of freedom of expression. but if it is mentioned as a statement, there is the connotation of assertion which lead people to believe it as a fact and can thus lead to defamation.

"XYZ is too proud to listen to suggestions."
=> this is sounding more like a statement, but i think while proud may have negative connotations depending on how it is used, should not be able to amount to defamation.

"XYZ is seriously too rich, too successful for shareholders good."
=> similar to above.

"So much for being a listed company that is really more a pte ltd."
=> this could be hard to pull off as defamation. misconstrued fact but is used in comparison and comes across more as opinion.

Are those statements are defamatory ? Please enlighten. If those really are. Forumers have to avoid those statements or you'll be charged with defamation.

anyway i think that for defamation to present itself as a case, it has to be that the majority of the people on reading/hearing will form the wrong opinion. therefore, something that is merely plausible should not constitute to defamation.
