Promoting respect of sexual orientation on the Internet (Charlotte Choi)


 This is the video which is created to urge people to be respectful towards sexual orientation in Singapore. As we know, English is one of the official languages in Singapore. Therefore, English is used in the video. However, why not Mandarin or Tamil? How about Malay? In my view, English is an international language that most people use. Using English in the advertisement is to try to make the whole stuff be more international and make it a modern, chic value that people should uphold. Chinese character as subtitle is shown too. It enables more audience to involve in.

Is it more pervasive in two languages version? Do you change your mind towards sexual orientation?
