Organisers of a dance competition in Perak have apologised after allegations were mede that several contestants were inappropriately dressed during the event last Saturday.
JJ & Alice Danceworld, which organised the Perak Muda Medalist Dancesport Championship 2019 and 7th Perak Show Dance Championship 2019, apologised for not adhering to the dress code set by the Education Ministry and the Malaysia United Dancesport Association (Muda).
However, it claimed, the participants were not aware of the dressing stipulations as they had not been informed.
“Due to unforeseen circumstances, we, the organiser, failed to inform all our participants on the dress code.
“We apologise for our mistake, which has consequently impacted our national body - Muda - and the Education Ministry,” JJ & Alice Danceworld said in a statement sighted online.
Images from the event, which took place in Ipoh, Perak, last Saturday, showed several participants garbed in belly dancing costumes, which were zeroed in by netizens.
The organisers also apologised for the use of the Education Ministry logo on the event backdrop without prior coordination with the ministry.
According to Astro Awani, Deputy Education Minister Teo Nie Ching (photo, above) confirmed the ministry received the apology by way of a statement from JJ & Alice Danceworld. - Mkini
