No dubbing, please!

The Association of Santi Rama Deaf Alumni (IKASA) would like
to express our concern over the government's plan to dub all
foreign programs, including those in English on all TV stations,
as a substitute for subtitles.

The policy, to be implemented next August, will surely deny
the deaf their right to obtain information and to enjoy
entertainment. The dubbing ruling is obviously a discriminatory
act in its nature.

We would like to direct our opinion to the ministries of
Information and Education and Culture for further consideration.
