SINGAPORE - Broadcaster Mediacorp, through its celebrity management wing, has apologised for an advertisement that shows an ethnic Chinese actor portraying characters such as a woman in a tudung and a man with visibly darker skin.
The ad on epaysg.com, an e-payments website, features Mediacorp actor and DJ Dennis Chew as four characters - apparently a Chinese man and woman, a Malay woman wearing a tudung, and, with his skin darkened, an Indian man.
