Air China has recalled copies of its in-flight magazine after an international outcry over an article warning people about "areas mainly populated by Indians, Pakistanis and black people" in London.
Mashable
quote:
“Safety: London is generally a safe place to travel, however precautions are needed when entering areas mainly populated by Indians, Pakistanis and black people," the advice read. "We advise tourists not to go out alone at night, and females always to be accompanied by another person when traveling."
quote:
"After discovering this problem, Air China immediately removed this magazine from all flights and demanded that the publishers of Wings of China seriously learn from this lesson, strengthen their content review and avoid making similar mistakes," the airline said.

Earlier this year, a Chinese laundry detergent maker apologized "for the harm caused to the African people" over its TV advertisement that showed a black man being stuffed into a washing machine and coming out a fair-skinned Asian man

Not really as racist as it seems, they are trying to provide information to people to not get killed. Could they have worded it differently, yes.

London has some ghettos but they're nothing like the hoods we have in the US.
