A total of 43 people – a mix of straight Singaporeans and prominent members from Singapore's LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) community – have come out in support of next month's Pink Dot event at Hong Lim Park in a newly released promotional video.
The non-profit event, popularly known for its pink-attired attendees, calls for the freedom to love among all. Last year, the event attracted a record breaking number of 21,000 people. This year, it will be held on 28 June.
Familiar faces such as television actress and Nominated Member of Parliament Janice Koh as well as theatre actor and "Broadway Beng" Sebastian Tan speak up in the 4-minute clip calling for a more "open-minded and inclusive Singapore". Actor Brandon Fernandez and gay couple, Gary Lim and Kenneth Chee, who filed a legal challenge in 2012 against a Singapore law that criminalises sex between men, are also featured.
The heartwarming clip has drummed up hype since being posted on YouTube on Thursday of last week, garnering close to 20,000 views as of Monday, attracting a mix of comments among supporters and non-supporters of the LGBT movement in Singapore.
