CHOGM ‘exposed’

Although related to CHOGM, this is worth writing about.

CHOGM is synonymous with pomp, circumstance and bla bla. But there’s another important connection: exposure of the human body. CHOGM is not just a good time to expose other countries’ misbehaviour, as in the case of Uganda this year or Pakistan in the past. You may also get a woman ending up showing her breast in true Janet Jackson style.

The unfortunate girl, reports the Daily Mail, is Fiona McKeown, who experienced what is called a “wardrobe malfunction” in front of around 50 head of states and of governments, a hall packed with VIPs, and Her Majesty QE2 during the opening ceremony of CHOGM at the Mediterranean Conference Centre on Friday. This not to mention the thousands watching the event live on TV.

There was another ‘naked woman incident’. It did not happen in Malta but the Prime Minister of Malaysia Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi was questioned about it while he was attending CHOGM in Malta. The Star report s video clip taken by a mobile phone showing Chinese women allegedly being mistreated in police custody was shown in Parliament and made rounds on Malaysian mobile networks. The Sydney Morning Herald published a snapshot from the video.

The Malaysian prime minister in Malta promised a full inquiry.
