Malaysian artiste Choo Hao Ren, better known as Haoren, recently released a music video for a skin whitening product featuring Instagram influencer Qiu Wen in brownface.

The music video, accompanying the song White Doll, was criticised by netizens for not only having a coloured-face, but also for its outdated idea that having a fair skin means mark of beauty.
