In the said segment of the pageant held in Florida, USA, Miss Singapore 2020 Bernadette Belle Ong wore a shiny red bodysuit with a wide red and white cape.
Ong drew cheers after she revealed the text on her cape which read “Stop Asian Hate”.
According to Rappler, the movement “Stop Asian Hate” began as a response to the increasing attacks towards Asians and Asian Americans, mostly the elderly, in the United States.
“Singapore is a place for all races and they are very proud to be Asian,” the announcer said.
