Air China issued a racist warning in its in-flight magazines , warning passengers about moving around in London - avoid areas populated by Indians , Pakistanis and black people .
"London is generally a safe place to travel, however precautions are needed when entering areas mainly populated by Indians, Pakistanis and black people," Air China says in its in-flight magazine.
Haze Fan, a journalist tweeted a photograph of the 'warning' to London mayor Sadiq Khan.
"The advice (of the airline) is at odds with the London promoted by its MayorSadiq Khan , a Brit with Pakistani parents, who in July launched a #LondonisOpen campaign and frequently blogs about his favorite places to eat and drink in his South London Indian-Pakistani neighborhood of Tootin," the journalist wrote.
Fan also mentioned a racist laundry detergent advertisement made in China recently. "Chinese companies have been criticized previously for their depictions of various races. In May, a Chinese laundry detergent-maker apologized for an advertisement that showed an Asian woman shoving a dirt-smeared black man into a washing machine, only for him to emerge as a clean Asian man," the journalist wrote.
Fan also said that some Western media called the detergent advertising “the most racist commercial ever”.
Now, let’s just wait and see what the officials will do regarding this.
