QUOTE(Brian O'Connor @ Apr 5 2012, 06:24 PM) I'm more worried about 'daring' cosplay by our female cosplayers. The Singapore Ballad Dance Performance has been cancelled recently by our Kementerian Penerangan due to so called 'exposed and indecent' costume by the dancer. Since, PWTC is an attraction as a gov. place for any event related to gov. organisation, afraid somebody, someone or some nobody or wannabe good citizens will take advantage on that to report to the minister with reason 'will give bad example to society'. http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=...5519&sec=nationclarified, move on.

Canceled due to political reason, I suppose UMNO won't ban cosplay

it's okay, the general election is just around the corner...the gov want many support from young people~
let's just look and see what happen after the event...cosplayers, attendees and all people coming there have to observe their conducts on that day if we don't want any any misconception about AFA.MY through the eyes of non-ACG fans on that day~

Except that "cosplaying will give a bad example to society" is actually a valid complaint. Not sure about you guys but I rather not have more attention whores and prima donnas trying to wrestle for the cameras for their 15 seconds of fame.

Not sure about you guys but I rather not have more attention whores and prima donnas trying to wrestle for the cameras for their 15 seconds or minutes of fame. Enuff said~ Corrected. You just prove that Andy Warhol's prophecy of "15 minutes of fame" really came true. SOS: 15 Minutes Of Fame

Suddenly I worry that when Danny, guest and other crossprayer spotted by those Metroll reporter, they will change their intention from reporting on "Pesta Pakaian Berahi" to "Pesta Pakaian Songsang" .... .... .... If you know what I mean.

There are many different type of cosplayer and a few of them might be giving out a bad example but you can't judge the whole community of cosplayer by a few inappropriate cosplayer ==!!! As a matter of fact it's their freedom to wear something from their favorite anime as long as it's not too revealing which will be a bad thing in many countries too. Cosplay is a part of anime/manga subculture and it did helped to promote anime/manga a bit, for those who wanted to looked at sexy awek... why bother going to anime/manga festival when there are many other festival with a bunch of sexy girls for photographing, PC Fair included... The ultimate truth is many cosplayer in anime/manga are not as pretty/sexy as those from other event so why bother about it? This post has been edited by ahinigami: Apr 7 2012, 11:01 PM
