Journalist Hoang Nguyen Vu scolded Minh Beo straight in the face: "Please don't honor a person who haunts parents."

This incident caused a great deal of public discontent.

The news that artist Minh Beo - who was "convicted" of pedophilia and was sentenced to prison in the US in 2016 was awarded a silver medal at the Southern Regional Theater Festival - is making some audiences unhappy. Previously, in 2017, when the actor returned home after completing his sentence in the US, the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Culture and Sports at that time advised "not to participate in performance activities because of violations. above, and at the same time to avoid bad public opinion in the performance environment".

Recently, journalist Hoang Nguyen Vu posted a forum to express his views on this "bad cry" story: "In honor of Minh Beo - Why is it possible to do this?

Hitting someone who runs away, not someone who runs back is a beautiful and humane behavior, for those who have made mistakes who know how to turn (it should be emphasized that they know how to turn). That contributes to creating conditions for lives to be redone. Even changed.

This does not mean that the case of Minh Beo, who has just been awarded an award by the Ministry of Culture, is also a person who has been imprisoned for pedophilia in the US. After the expiration of the term, when he returned home, Minh Beo encountered a wave of strong protests. Most do not and do not want to forgive, do not and do not want to see Minh Beo appear in the art environment anymore.

May be in a certain way strict. But it is the rigor needed for Minh Beo to realize all his mistakes and violations and stand up.

People still see Minh Beo setting up the stage, recruiting actors, performing plays. Yes, artistic activities are not banned, but people need time to clean up the stains of dignity.

And then, accusations of sexual harassment and love affairs appeared around Minh Beo, after the iron door of the old crime was opened not long ago; and the date of returning to the stage is not long...

In the midst of many noisy events, in the midst of many people's memories, Minh Beo has another chance to let people forget ugly stories from the past. But that does not mean that everything will stay in the past, if he continues to follow the old path.

Perhaps, the honor given to Minh Beo at a ministerial-level agency is not advisable. At least, not yet Minh Beo's time. And again, not for a person like Minh Beo.

That honor is really offensive and once again stirs up outrage, when the issue of child protection is a burning issue today. I say not the time because really, Minh Beo has nothing to show remorse or change.

And not for someone like Minh Beo, because his status as an artist doesn't really exist anymore, to be honored. If a place honors the kind of village pond; or honor the kind of teasing, we do not discuss. But, the Ministry of Culture, really can't understand.

Usually, with artists who make mistakes and mistakes, when redoing their lives, people will choose many paths: one is to dedicate themselves to art, the other is to dedicate themselves to life by meaningful and traditional works. real inspiration.

Devoted to art, Minh Beo doesn't really have anything. As for dedicating to life, over the past year, a year of continuous and harsh epidemic, many artists have defied everything, including the cruel market, to volunteer to help life despite the dangers, regardless of the danger. accept people's tongues.

Among them, there is no Minh Beo. You said that you should look more compassionate towards Minh Beo. You said that hitting the runaway but no one hitting the running back and giving Minh Beo a chance...

So I ask you, is Minh Beo really compassionate, to let go of this life, so that we have to be kind to him? Minh Beo still runs after the slips that have not stopped haunting us in the past, but where has he really run back to let people hold back?

Temporarily forgetting to let Minh Beo still make a living from the limelight in the past time has been a big tolerance for him. You have given me many chances. But honor? Why can do that? Why can you do that?

Granted, don't equate this with that, but please don't honor a person who causes a lot of obsession for parents in protecting the safety of their children, especially at this time.

Please do not!"

Talking to the press, Mr. Tran Huong Duong - Deputy Director of the Performing Arts Department, head of the organizing committee of the Southern National Drama Festival - said that artist Minh Beo's company participated in the theater festival. is approved by the Department of Culture and Sports of Ho Chi Minh City and artist Minh Beo is awarded by the art council of the festival to judge the quality of art for awarding.

"Officially, state agencies do not have any recommendations on the practice of artist Minh Beo. Currently, artist Minh Beo and his company are not breaking the law. They are enough. Conditions for participating in theater festivals and when achieving artistic quality, it is normal to be awarded prizes," said Mr. Duong.
