  • Pink Dot SG, known exonymously as Pink Dot, is an event that has occurred annually since 2009 in support of the LGBT community in Singapore. Attendees of Pink Dot events gather to form a "pink dot" to show support for inclusiveness, diversity and the freedom to love in the country. In addition to the titular formation, Pink Dot events usually feature concert performances and booths sponsored by organisations supporting the LGBT community and cause. The success of Pink Dot in Singapore has inspired similar events in several other countries, leading to the event to become known as Pink Dot SG — SG being an initialism for Singapore. It has been held each year in Singapore from 2009 to 2019 at the Speakers' Corner in Hong Lim Park on a Saturday in the months of May, June or July. The 2020 and 2021 editions were held as online livestreams, in view of the global COVID-19 pandemic. The 2022 edition was held in-person once again in June. (en)
  • Pink Dot SG(以下简称粉红点)是新加坡的一个年度运动及户外活动,从2009年至今,每年都会在芳林公园演说者之角举行,旨在声援同性恋、双性恋、跨性别(LGBT)人士,倡导“有爱无类”(freedom to love)。其首场集会的出席人数估计有1000到2500人左右,在2015年剧增至2万8000人。 粉红点主办方号召公众身着粉红色,支持爱多元化。由于新加坡在世界地图上的位置,故该国亦有“小红点”的称号,这个户外活动的概念就是以人群来形成一个“粉红点”。该活动多年来获得新加坡的国内及跨国企业的援助,也得到国内各个LGBT及其他团体的支持。粉红点以野餐聚会的形式进行,融入演唱会以及介绍各个社群团体的展位;另外,新加坡各所大学的学生团体也联合起来,在2015年的粉红点正式推出为新加坡的LGBT大学生而设的独立支持网。 2012年,粉红点首次在夜间进行,以手中的灯光形成粉红色的灯海,有1万5000人出席了该场集会;接下来的3年裡也是在夜间举办。2016年,主办方决定发放5000个粉红色标语牌给新加坡公民与永久居民出席者,让他们写下想说的话。 新加坡粉红点的成功引发世界其他地区,如香港、台湾、琉球等等,仿效这个概念,主办类似的活动。香港主办方将活动的中文名称定为“一点粉红”,2014年开始在添马公园举办,2016年迈入第三个年头,主办方将活动主题定为“爱必胜”并改在西九苗圃公園举行,吸引逾万人出席。台湾台北华山中央艺文公园则在2015年举行首届粉红点,以“异同靠近点,野餐粉红点”作为主题。 近年来,粉红点遭到基督教、回教等宗教团体的反击。2014年的粉红点当晚巧遇回教斋戒月的开始,回教徒发起「穿白衣运动」抵制该活动,的邝健雄牧师也响应号召,呼吁基督徒在粉红点当天身着白色,维护“传统家庭”。这导致主办方首次需要驻守保安人员以维持秩序。在接下来两年的粉红点,邝健雄继续号召基督徒穿白衣出席礼拜。 从2008年起,芳林公园的演说角落成为全新加坡唯一可以无需申请许可,合法发表演讲或示威的地方,而且只限新加坡公民和永久居民参与。参加粉红点的人数逐年增加,所获得的企业赞助也逐年剧增,2016年的粉红点就有高达18个企业资助,绝大多数是跨国公司,包括Facebook、Google、苹果公司等等。新加坡政府随即警告“外国机构”不要干预该国内政。 2017年,因新法律视所有现身活动场地者为集会之一部分,所以主办方首次必须设围栏,并且只允许新加坡公民和永久居民进场。另外,由于外国机构被禁止赞助粉红点,有高达120个当地企业出面给予经济援助。即使因安全缘故,共有2万名公民和永久居民跻身围栏内。 (zh)
