Red + White = Pink

Singapore just saw the first pink dot day take place on the 18th.
I'm loving the mascot:


The idea is very simple and very Singaporean. Have a gay pride day without calling it gay pride, invite all your straight family and friends, bet yourself in the paper and begin to open the door to LGBTQ acceptance in mainstream S'pore society. Somehow I like it, there is a 10 minute video- watch for the classic S'pore accent! ah, that brings back memories (so people lay it on so think you have a hard time to understand them).

But to be fair, there have been gay pride events in the past, but they were pretty exclusive and low key, so it's very nice to see something more inclusive and getting more attention happening.
