A citizen advisory panel will be formed in this largest metropolis of China
to prevent advertisers from erecting billboards featuring scantily clad women
and other images that might offend local sensibilities. The move
follows a series of recent complaints over a huge billboard in the Xujiahui area
that displayed the bare thigh of a Hong Kong pop star who was selling skin-care
products.
The billboard was taken down after authorities discovered that the space had
been approved for a public service ad and that an improper switch had
occurred. (For more biz stories, please visit Industry Updates) |
