Dear Management:
About the first days of February 2012, SGF knew that there
will be a talent selection show to be performed on the Galaxy Stage inside AMC
on February 12, 2012. We believe that this is an opportunity to learn more
about the Vietnamese community in the Northeast State; therefore, we send Hoan
Le, our news reporter to the AMC to make a television report for the Vietnamese
communities around the world. At 8:00 pm, Mr. Le was present at the Galaxy Stage
and the security on duty permitted him to enter the Stage with his camcorder to
take the video of the show. While Mr. Le was taking videos and directed his
view on the Stage for about 15 minutes, another security from nowhere came to
Mr. Le and ask if Mr. Le was authorized to take video; otherwise, Mr. Le must
stop taking the video or else the security will come to take his camcorder. Mr.
Le did not have any reactions, but stop taking the video, leave the Galaxy
Stage, leave the ACM and texted messages to the editors of SGF in California.
The SGF editors immediately, re-examined the details of the
policy of the AMC on the official Web site of the AMC, re-examined the
information on the poster of the talent show. On February 14, 2012 at 11:35 am we
contacted the AMC and the lady conveyed our call to the Galaxy Stage manager.
Since the Galaxy Stage manager was absent, we left a message to the Manager. At
12:37 pm the Galaxy Stage Manager called back and said that the video Mr. Le
has taken is not against at all to the policy of the AMC since Mr. Le did not
directed his camcorder to any other activities inside the AMC. Therefore, SGF
decided to email to the AMC Management its remarks and request as follow:
1.
The video that Mr. Le has taken did not violate the
policy of the AMC officially declared on its Web site. In the Asian Nights the
AMC does not prohibit the video taking inside the Galaxy Stage. On the poster, there
is not any information that prohibits the video taken as well. Inside the AMC,
there are no signs that read No Video Taken. Moreover, Mr. Le just directed the
Camcorder to the Galaxy Stage and did not take any other activities inside the
AMC, or violated AMC customers’ privacy.
2.
The location where Mr. Le stood taking the video
did not cover the view, or bother other people because behind him was a big column;
furthermore, this show was free admission, the audience was so nice. The
security loudly threatened Mr. Le like a criminal to remove the camera before
the crowd, and thus, seriously violated the honor of Mr. Le who was working for
the news for the communities.
The editors of SGF; therefore, publicly announced a Letter
to the AMC regarding the incident happened on the Galaxy Stage on the night of
February 12, 2012 as following:
1.
Send this email to the Management of the AMC
requesting them to explain the incident the security has wrongly done to Mr. Le
and that AMC would release a letter to apologize to SGF about Mr. Le’s honor
was violated.
2.
SGF may request the AMC the compensation for the
honor Mr. Le was seriously violated while he was hunting news report for the
Vietnamese communities; consequently, the video taking was destroyed, and the
news and video reports were painfully lost. The compensation includes the
expenses for Mr. Le’s trip from California to Washington.
SGF is looking forward to hearing from the AMC’s explanation
so that our concern is satisfied. We have compiled a letter to the Vietnamese
communities and the news agencies all over the world, the communities of
Southern, Northern California, San Francisco, Oregon and Washington; however,
we did not send yet and are waiting for your explanation. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Hoang HoaEditor in chief of Saigon Television and Social Network (SGF)
