The American announcer who had been commentating many of the matches of the Womens’ Tennis Association (WTA) finals in Singapore over the past week has apologised for concluding his last commentary with “Zai Jian” and “goodbye from China”.
Kevin Skinner had been a commentator here for over a week but it seems that in the end, he still wasn’t sure if Singapore was actually a part of China.
When his mistake was broadcast LIVE, many took to twitter to express their anger and disbelief at the huge error:


Skinner later went on to twitter to apologise for the mistake saying that he had “made a serious mistake”:

What do you think?

 

[Leongsam]

She's perfectly correct. She's probably the only commentator who got it right.

 

[Romagnum]

Angmoh power!

 

[OverTheCounter]

Get a life, you guys.

The commentator was spot on and he should be promoted, not fired.

 

[looneytan]

She's perfectly correct. She's probably the only commentator who got it right.

Kevin is a she? Twit la you!

If he said india that would be worse but you know something amazing.

Ppl like hossan leong probably wouldn't be offended. I can bet he's a chinese dog despite looking so cheena and wouldn't mind being mistaken for any other race even aboriginal except for being chinese.

 

[halsey02]

She's perfectly correct. She's probably the only commentator who got it right.

Yah!..he is right, we are comrades, brothers & our forefathers is from CHINA & our motherland...anyway, to the "red hair devils"..it is like the Cantonese saying, " yaw so, hai nay call low dou"....[ have moustache is your father]..ha ha ha..all slit eye chink look the same anywhere...must be from CHINA.

All Arabs are from Arabia....too..ha ha ha ha....they all look the same too..

 

[laksaboy]

We are Cheenapore, we are cheenapore, we will die together, lay down on the floor.

 

[halsey02]

We are Cheenapore, we are cheenapore, we will die together, lay down on the floor.

We are gonna, spit in spitton again, pick our nose, dig our ears with the copper ear digger, burp loudly & fart equally loud, talk like we are all hard of hearing, squat on the floor in public, pee & shit on the grass....we are cheenapore, yes we are CHEENAPORE!....

 

[frenchbriefs]

Look I dunno why u guys are so butthurt....I know u guys grew up in this country....when u guys look at each other u guys think to urself oh ur a Singaporean I'm a Singaporean we are one big family yay!!! But when a ang moh looks at you what is he supposed to think?" Oh look here's a fucking chink!!"

 

[laksaboy]

I find it amusing but I'm not patriotic enough to express outrage and indignation.

Next time, call Singapore India.

 

[blissquek]

She's perfectly correct. She's probably the only commentator who got it right.

I hope she did it deliberately...

This will help other Nations to align their views and strategies in the event China post a squadron of MIG fighters here.
