傅海燕称NETS争议广告无恶意,但“美丽求求你”讽刺视频不妥

今年7月底,闹得沸沸扬扬的电子支付平台NETS广告风波引起热议,除了广告公司和艺人周崇庆致歉,网红“美丽求求你”(Preetipls)也因为拍摄讽刺视频,被警方介入调查,并发出24个月有条件警告。

昨日(10日),文化、社区及青年部长傅海燕在一项活动上重提此事,她表示并不觉得NETS广告有任何冒犯之意,反而是网红“美丽求求你“的讽刺视频使用侮辱性语言, 行为实属不妥。

傅海燕昨日受邀至义顺星烁初级学院参与种族和谐资源中心OnePeople.SG的第五届模拟联合国大会,在对话会上,学生重提争议广告。

对此,傅海燕坦言她个人认为对于周崇庆所饰演的角色并没有感到任何问题,并表示周崇庆当时只是在演好反串的角色,而且他所扮演的人物并具贬损意味,只是在描绘一个“普通人”的角色,如家庭主妇或是工人。

指基层领导反映广告未冒犯印裔

她补充道,针对此事,询问大多数基层领导,包括印度人,均不认为广告具有冒犯之意。

傅海燕表示,NETS广告是想向公众传达一个讯息,即付费平台能够为所有人使用,无论是何种背景、种族的人。

不过,针对网红“美丽求求你“的视频,她则认为“是不同的问题”,因为视频内,网红使用了污秽的语言,指责了广告里的艺人不敏感。

她也解释,网红“美丽求求你”也曾出现取笑华人新年的视频,这样的做法也被视为是不敏感的行为。

“美丽求求你讽刺华人新年”

“如果我们放过视频,不采取任何行动,在各族间盛怒之下,万一华人也开始采取类似的侮辱性视频,这对种族间的关系又会产生什么影响?”她解释。

她也称自己除了旗袍以外,也会不时穿着印度服装和马来服装,所以也希望种族纷争能够就此停止。

她指出,NETS广告争议显示社会标准是如何随着时间的推移而改变,因此国人必须在种族课题上培养敏感度,避免在课题上踩雷,最重要是分辨和了解情况再决定。

“过去的标准未必能成为现今的标准,所以我们必须考量公众的期望而作出调整。”

广告争议事件的经过

今年7月,电子支付广告NETS 邀请本地华裔艺人周崇庆扮演四大种族角色,其中包括一名印裔男子与戴头巾的巫裔女子,广告释出后引起社会议论,当中不少少数民族对此抗议。

随后网红“美丽求求你”普丽蒂与其兄便拍摄视频调侃,以侮辱性语言和咒骂斥责广告不具备敏感度。视频内两人直指以华人打扮成印度人看起来不好笑,甚至很傻,并质问为何不选用印裔或巫裔。

视频曝光后,反而引起更大的争议,部分民众支持普丽蒂的做法,认为她在为少数民族发生,但更是激起华裔族群的愤怒与斥责,随后该视频也遭资讯通信媒体发展局(IMDA)警告撤下,警方也随之介入调查,网红“美丽求求你”与其兄也发表道歉声明,并获得24个月的有条件警告。

尔后,电子支付平台公司NETS也发文致歉,并澄清是为了向公众表达“每个人都能使用电子付款”的用意,无意引起争议,而艺人周崇庆在饱受批评后也随之发文道歉,整起争议事件才得以平息。
