SINGAPORE: The People's Association has apologised after a wedding photo of a couple was used as a standee for Hari Raya decorations in Radin Mas Single Member Constituency without the couple's permission.
The communications specialist for an international humanitarian aid organisation said in her letter to the authorities, shared on Instagram, that not only was this "disregard for copyright laws", it was"tone deaf" as PA used a photo of the couple in traditional Malay wedding outfits to depict Hari Raya.When contacted, Ms Sarah said that the photo was taken at her wedding in 2017.
"Minister Edwin Tong has also separately apologised to me privately and acknowledged that the incident is inappropriate and insensitive. He also said that he has asked PA and Radin Mas SMC to look into the matter and will let me know how this happened," she told CNA. PA said that the Radin Mas Constituency Office had engaged a vendor, Warabi Enterprise , to design and put up Hari Raya decorations at the Tiong Bahru Orchid estate.
"We take such breaches, including copyright violations, seriously. We will put in place stricter internal controls and processes to ensure this does not happen again."
