Brad Pitt Insulting to Asians?

Postby canman » Tue Dec 17, 2002 2:13 pm

Brad Pitt's TV and newspaper ads for Toyota called "an insult to Asians

I think the Malaysian gov't spouts off like this every couple of months, just to let their own people think that they really care about them.
Its a commercial people, who cares if he is American or not. It is all about selling cars, nothing more, nothing less.

The article says...
ads featuring models and personalities who don't look Asian would "plant a sense of inferiority among Asians,"..."Why must we use their faces in our advertisements?" .... "Aren't our own people handsome enough?"


Oh yeah. The "Orang Asli" of Malay would sell LOTS of cars I bet. :biggrin2:
