Dear All
It was most heart-warming for us and Rui En to receive your words of support, understanding and encouragement. It matters a lot to us.
Many of you are concerned about Rui En. She is fine and has decided to focus on her filming in Malaysia because this matters most to her currently.
We understand that many of you are concerned how Rui En and RBKD may be be unfavourably perceived due to media biasness, thank you for your kind concern.
To us, this was one incident that less misleading information could have prevented, but it was not.
To us, this was one incident that a single sincere clarification could have stopped, but it was not.
To us, this was also one incident that less conflicting and contradicting statements could have put a stop to, but it was not.
You might also think that this was one incident that need not have been like this if not for Rui En or our reaction, but you are not right, because we did not ask for this.
In life, everyone is different. We not only look and behave differently, we think and consider issues differently. What matters a lot to some people might not matter at all to us; however, it is basic manners for us to respect and be mindful of what matters to others that might be insignificant to us, this is defined in dictionaries as being Considerate.
To some of you, Rui En might have overreacted.
But to Rui En, it is a matter of integrity and principles, and also her firm belief that sexual/physical abusing of women should never be used as a form of attention grabbing ploy for any purposes, including for the promotion of a drama. And these, matter a lot to her.
For RBKD, it was a tough call. We know the road ahead would not be easy, we know we might offend people, we know we might be misunderstood, we know it is easier for us to just censor Rui En’s post and prevent it from being posted, we also know it is easier for us if we just keep our mouths shut and pray that people forget about the incident totally. But is the easy way out the right way to go?
Truth will eventually speak for itself, definitely.
We seek neither attention nor trouble, but only to guard the integrity and principles that matter most to us, most to her.
We thank all media, with the exception of one, for handling this incident with as much caution as possible.
We thank all fans, for voicing out in support of Rui En when it matters most.
We thank all Rangels, for never ever wavering your belief in Rui En and in us too.
Lastly, we thank Rui En, for standing firm by your belief and speaking up for it. You taught us valuable lessons:
1. To never fear doing what is right;
2. To safeguard the beliefs that matter most to us; and
3. To mean what we say when we claim that we empathise with the victims of sexual/physical abuse.
Mean what you say and say what you mean.
May this incident comes to a closure with this as we realign focus to what matters most to us now, the show “On The Fringe” itself.
