CHR sa It’s Showtime: Hindi dapat gawing biro ang mga inabandona

- June 17, 2018 - 05:13 PM

SINABIHAN ng Commission on Human Rights (CHR) ang pamunuan at producer ng noontime show ng ABS-CBN na “It’s Showtime” na mas maging responsable matapos gawing biro sa show ang mga inabandona.

“We call on ‘It’s Showtime’ to be more responsible in providing entertainment. Being funny at the expense of people under less favorable circumstances is inhumane and cruel,” sabi ng CHR sa isang pahayag.

Sa episode ng show noong Hunyo 7, nagbiro ang miyembro ng all-girl group ng show na si Erin Ocampo kaugnay ng mga inabandona sa segment na “Purokatatawanan”.

Tinanong ni Ocampo ang miyembro ng all-boy group na si Jimboy Martin “how to make an ugly child.”

Sinagot ni Martin si Ocampo ng “ask her mother about it.” Sumagot si Ocampo, sa pagsasabi kay Martin ng “ask his true parents because he is an “orphan.”

Humingi na ng sori ang show sa pangyayari.

“Being an adopted child or ‘ampon’ is not a matter of ridicule. A person’s birth circumstance does not diminish his/her dignity, nor does it define his/her personhood,” sabi ng CHR.

“The Commission advises everyone, especially the entertainment sector, to refrain from promoting discrimination against, or perpetuating the stigmatization of, persons, especially those brought about under special circumstances of less privilege,” dagdag ng commission.

Kinondena na rin ng Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) ang pangyayari at tinawag itong “offensive joke”.
