CNN —
An ethnically Chinese actor who allegedly darkened his skin to portray characters of different races in an advertisement has sparked a “brownface” controversy in multi-ethnic Singapore.
Part of a government initiative to promote electronic payments, the ad features actor Dennis Chew, from the city state broadcaster Mediacorp, dressed as four characters, including what appears to be a Malay woman wearing a headscarf.
It has since been taken down.

In today's politically correct world it doesn't matter whether you find it offensive. What matters is whether the affected minority group finds it offensive.

It was a very high quality TV program and the performers were very talented and classy. I have fond memories of it and remembered it being shown on Saturday evenings around 8pm. Banning it was a travesty.
