A letter of support: Email the BBC and the Producers
Dear Friends and Supporters,
First and foremost, our heartfelt-thank you for expressing your support and signing the On-line petition and campaign for the Dignity and Respect for the Filipino Overseas Worker, as a response for the culturally insensitive and offensive comedy sketch Harry and Paul aired by BBC UK.
At present, the BBC or the producers of the show have still not offered their public apology as demanded by the Filipino Community in the UK and by the various Filipino sectors worldwide despite the massive tri-media attention.
We are now again soliciting your support as a show of solidarity and to get our common message across to those concerned. May we request you or your community organization to directly send a brief email of complaint to those concerned?
Please send your email of complains to:
general@tigeraspect.co.uk (the company who produced the show)
complaints@pcc.org.uk (Press Complaints Commission)
contact@ofcom.org.uk (Office of Communications, Commercial TV Regulatory body)
You can also complete BBC's online complains form by clicking on this link: www.bbc.co.uk/complaints
Please have the following details as reference:
Name of programme: "HARRY AND PAUL SHOW"
Channel it was shown: BBC 1
Time and Date of Broadcast: 26 September, 9 p.m. / 29 September
Please refrain from sending any offensive/ vulgar/ insulting or provocative language as we do not want to generate any misunderstanding and dissidence. We simply would like to get the message across for BBC and the Producers of the show (Tiger Aspect Production) to publicly apologize to the Filipino community and to undertake that nothing of anything similar in nature will happen again with respect to every multicultural community in the UK. Please also send us a copy of your complaints letter for our records, at beu.london@gmail.com
We also encourage you to pass this message to friends and other kababayans who might wish to support the campaign. There are 8-million OFW globally and we are hoping for your full support.
Together we have a voice, and through our small voice we can show the world how to respect others and regulate our own actions.
Best regards,
Michael Duque
