Some netizens are outraged over an ad for social workers that appears to label the disabled as "Hopeless".
The ad features a social worker helping amputees to play ball, and is captioned with the word "Hopeless" in large font, followed by the words, "if not for Ruth Lim, a Professional Social Worker".
The offending ad has since gone viral on the internet, with some slamming it for being "rude", "thoughtless", "distasteful", "insensitive" and "downright insulting", among other things.
One outraged netizen, 'Ingrid Wee', said, "They could have put it in so many other angles but they chose the most juvenile and insensitive one. Shame on you MCYS!" Full story
