Is that Enough?

The Hong Kong-based magazine columnist who labeled the Philippines as a “nation of servants” has issued a public apology for the racial slur, reports said today.

According to reports, HK Magazine columnist Chip Tsao made the apology last night over a local TV station in Hong Kong.

The apology came a few days after Tsao branded the Philippines “a nation of servants” in his column titled “The War at Home.” He also reportedly told his Filipina servant that he will terminate her employment in the event the Philippines takes over the highly disputed Spratly islands.

The Bureau of Immigration (BI) yesterday barred Chao from entering the Philippines, adding that “he could only be allowed entry to the country following a public apology for his insults.”
