Shocking Defamation Of ACS By NJC Students

Wong Ken Yan

Its on Stomp, its on Xin Min Wan Bao and of course on facebook. An appalling display of arrogance and lack of culture manifested in the classroom the the highly acclaimed Junior College on god-knows-when. Pictures put up by whoever depicted Njc students presenting with a mahjong paper on their views of how dictatorial regimes should be executed and they coincidentally decided to use ACS as an example (buncha noobs at least use some school that SOUNDS like ACS eg ASC or SCA)

The atrocious act by the "future leaders" of Singapore invited a hailstorm of heated comments. The school and its students were lambasted publicly by many for its irresponsible behaviour while little or no others retorted or defended the Junior college.

Understanding that this was an official school activity, many wondered: what has became of Singapore's moral education for Junior college students? Has education became so academically oriented that students without sound moral values are neglected? Has the omittance of a structured time slot of moral education in the JC time table resulted in moral erosion? In this case, the students have demonstrated a poor judgment and yet the teacher(s) has permitted such degradation of virtues in the classroom. Hence it is in my opinion that the students responsible and teacher who did not prevent or initiated it to be given the lethal injection to appease the students of ACS and also as a sacrifice to warn all Singaporeans that degradatory remarks are not tolerated, an epitome of a dictatorial regime.

On less solemn and more celebratory note, Ris Low is bumped of the throne : Boomz and shes gone. Hurray for the runner up.
