The Unhappiness
For my last episode of Fashion Ambush, I decided to film Witchery in ION. Witchery is an Australian brand that has come to our shores last April. Since it is a relatively new brand in Singapore, I thought it might be good for the viewers to know. But I was totally disappointed by the treatment me and my production crew received form the store manager who is an Ang Moh girl (or bitch)! We were filming some of their accessories and she just simply came up while the camera was rolling and commented crudely that the particular necklace we were introducing was wore wrongly!
Okay! The necklace has a chain attached to a look-like embroidered shoulder cape so you can actually wear it 2 ways- either the chain in front or at the back. In our show we always try to let the viewers know how you can wear one thing more than one way to utilize as much as you can. Before we could do that, she interrupted. Fashion is not electrical appliances, you do not need to read the instruction manual to know how to operate it! Fashion is all about individual interpretation. And guess what???? My co-host Ben Yeo saw her making faces to her colleague 'like this group of people are dumb and dun even know how to wear a necklace kind-of -look!'
Is she racist of what???? My whole MediaCorp production team felt so uncomfortable with her arrogance and attitude.
To the Aussie Ang Moh Girl
Darling! You are posted to Singapore to work so learn the way how the Asians work and not with your laid back Aussie attitude! Asians are very hardworking and warm people so stop showing your F**king attitude and racist face! Seems like you look really unhappy working here in Singapore or rather in an Asian environment, please quit your job or simply ask for a transfer back to Australia where u probably work less hard. You are just a store manager so don't throw your weight around like a fashion-know-it all cos you probably only know Flip-flops back in your country. I mean it's already sad that you have a F**k face but with an even more F**ker attitude, it makes you double F**ked!
The Consequences
I complained about her to the PR firm and they said that she is Aussie and Australians are like that. WHAT???? My Australian friends are no where near her in terms of looks, attitude & character! That is an insult to the better brought up Australians. In that case she should not work in Singapore or Asia. They were trying to pacify me by saying that the Aussie management team is actually very nice but too bad, this F**king bitch is front line staff and they have already failed terribly and hurt the brand image!
So I have decided to ban Witchery & their sister brand Mimco (also in ION) from all my editorial shoots, filming etc. I seriously don't think they deserve any publicity and I totally do not support brands that have a tendency towards racism.
