COMMENT | A simple apology is simply not enough

COMMENT | I wonder if I am being out of place and just ‘mansplaining' the issue, but I really can’t help myself.

What actor Fauzi Nawawi said on the talk show on Rumah No 107 on Astro Warna recently is a sign of an ingrained endemic in our society worst than dengue or even Covid-19.

If you aren’t familiar with what had happened, Fauzi appeared on the talk show and described how he prefers acting in rape scenes over robbery scenes when asked by one of the hosts. He continues to talk about a scene he had acted in a movie called Anak Halal.

He talked about the scene in so much detail from the position of the actress involved, where the crew members were and how he had to control his facial reactions and feelings of lust in order to not show that he was enjoying it too much.

The way he was telling the story was so nonchalant and he looked excited. It looked like he had no qualms about what he had done and about what he was saying and expressing at that particular moment in the talk show like it was just another everyday occurrence. Disgusting.

This is a man who has no respect for women...
