AirAsia’s female cabin crew uniform is under fire during the UMNO General Assembly. A Wanita UMNO delegate had strong words against the AirAsia uniform for female cabin crew, deeming it an ‘embarrassment’ to women. [Malaysiakini]
“The uniform is too revealing. We don’t want to look at their thigh and knee,” said Zaleha Hussin, an elderly woman delegate from the northeastern state of Kelantan.
“Malaysia is an Islamic nation and we are ashamed of the AirAsia uniform,” she told the meeting.
Male delegates also supported the change of dress code. “It should be implemented by explaining that we are a Muslim country,” said Azman Ruslan, a lawyer. [Reuters]
I think AirAsia’s female cabin crew looks great in their uniforms. If they feel comfortable working in it, and not embarrassed of revealing their knee… why should we feel embarrassed or ashamed about their outfit?
I have been on flight in a few occasions (twice with Air Asia); most of the time I would be sleeping, reading or watching movies (if available), just like what most others would do… only perverts and idiots would keep staring at the cabin crew.
