网红美丽求求你拍讽刺视频 尚穆根批“已过界”

本地Youtube网红“美丽求求你”普丽蒂(Preeti Nair,简称Preetipls)因不满epay的宣传照制作视频讽刺调侃。内政兼律政部长尚穆根对此表示,这种行为已“越过界”,无法接受。 他回应,“该说唱视频以粗俗语言与姿势、对着新加坡华人比中指,刻意挑拨少数族群对华人的愤怒。” 尚穆根续指,“当你利用粗俗的语言与姿势挑拨其他种族的愤怒,我们就必须要画下界限并表明这种行为是不可接受的”,他还表明,如果允许这类的言论或歌曲持续散播,情况将更糟糕。 尚穆根直指,拍摄视频不尽然会引起暴力,可能民众也只会一笑置之,但也不应成为借口。 “如果你感到不满,你可以去要求道歉,如果你认为这是犯罪,你可以报警,但并不是要你越界。” 尚穆根称,如默许该说唱视频,那就行同默许其他人仿效,或将伤害种族和谐与社会结构。 “这样人民会感觉到安全吗?少数民族会放心吗?新加坡之所以能够成为优秀的国家,是因为我们让所有族群包括少数民族感觉到安全,所以我们有责任维持种族间的和谐”,他说。 视频昨撤下  网民重新上载 美丽求求你的说唱视频长达2分50秒,于周一(29日)上传至社交网络平台上,其歌词内容相信是针对日前充满争议的epay的宣传照而讽刺,但在昨天下午已撤下,在撤下前获得1100个赞和110则留言。 视频内普丽蒂批评新传媒拍摄的广告传递刻板印象,艺人打扮成印度人不好笑也看起来很傻,至少可以选用不同的人拍广告;至于她的哥哥苏巴什则揶揄“干嘛要妒忌他的肤色”,而怎么选谁都是华人赢;再者上一次屠妖节还有华人打扮成锡克族,令他感到受不了。…
