“We don’t know who this guy is, of course, so we don’t know if he knew they were kissing for CNA specifically or just a camera in general.
It is the look given by one of the men, who poses directly to camera post-kiss, that has caught many people’s attention, said a representative of Kaleidoscope NTU, a group formed by students at Nanyang Technological university to raise awareness of discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, as well as gender, race and class. It has also been shared widely on Weibo, a popular social media platform in China. “This is actually an act of revolution,” one user wrote. But on TikTok a clip of the kiss has been viewed more than 825,000 times. The kiss does not feature in a version of the report published by Channel News Asia (CNA) on its website.
