Women's Aid Ad: Isn't it time someone called cut?




The actress Kiera Knightley made this video about a pressing social issue. What is it? Can we relate this to anything in Singapore??

There is no sound. Is this about women being abused?

If it is then I feel that this is something which happenes trhoughout the world. Its not as widespread in singapore but this certainly exists.

Provide shelter to women as a form of aid?

Yes Kiren it is about abuse against women, more specifically domestic violence.
You say that it is not widespread in Singapore but i'm guessing you are only looking Singaporean women/wives. How about other social groups? How about Singaporeans who are not victims but rather the perpetrators? Is there a particular group that is always been the brunt of domestic violence?

Also, providing shelter may help but it is only a short-term solution.
