What made it worse was that Berita Harian did not apologise nor withdraw the cartoon voluntarily. It was only after much protest, negative feedback and uproar from the public that it was forced to apologise for its “tasteless” move. It said “We never meant to make fun of the disaster which has struck the country, and we deeply sympathise and share in sadness with the people of Japan,” If you never meant to make fun of the disaster, you would not have published the above utterly crude, callow, tasteless, insensitive cartoon!!!
Take a look at the few photos below, and tell me if these sufferings are worth making fun of? Even my seven year old or anyone with common sense can tell Berita Harian this is no laughing matter!
SHAME ON YOU, BERITA HARIAN!!! You even made it to CNN International website. SHAME! SHAME! SHAME!
