Seeing red over UOB staff dinner 'blackface' photos

By Jennani Durai

Several Chinese employees of United Overseas Bank have raised eyebrows online after posting pictures of themselves in 'blackface' at a Bollywood-themed staff dinner.

Pictures of last Friday's event at the Fairmont Hotel were posted on social networking site Facebook on Sunday. At least three men are pictured with their faces painted black, presumably because the event was Indian-themed and Indians have darker skin.

'Blackface' is widely seen as racially charged, especially in the United States. It originated as a form of theatrical make-up for performers to act out caricatures of dark-skinned people.

Attempts to reach the staff involved were unsuccessful.

The only crime UOB is guilty of is plagiarism.

Also in this country remember it's only racist if a chinese does it. If some kek lengs dressed up in pig tails nope perfectly ok.

For once, people are prepared to take the trouble to dress and be creative about it. I am sure their Indian colleagues are pleased with their efforts and their ability to get into theme. It is certainly not a half baked job.

I totally agree with you. We are all getting too petty and too over-board with just too many things....squeaky clean will lead us to more dirt and filth...Just let go a bit...Good for everyone! Cheers!
