Discussion on Dr Ong Teck Chin

The school’s priorities right now should be simple enough.
1. Establish a stable situation.
2. Provide crisis counselling and management.
3. Support the students and buffer them against stressors like the Press etc.
4. Provide timely updates about the school to the parents, but only if necessary.
5. Do not get distracted by the ex-principal because he is no longer staff.
6. Ensure the management of examinations etc is orderly and competent.
7. Assess and review current plans and see if still workable.
8. Prepare for the next academic year.
9. Work out the talent-sharing that is necessary for their link-up with MGS.
I don’t think much is gained by speculation right now. But I’m sure we’d all like to see these priorities dealt with. -

My personal opinion is that the way the current admin cope with these nine issues (maybe more? anyone wants to add to this?) will tell us a lot about what to expect in the difficult months ahead. -
:? why is (9) there?

You all see the point?
This is how stigma in homosexuality can cause harm. It can be exploited as a weapon against the person someone dislike regardless of his ability and contribution to the society or the organisation.
Please don’t beat me. I am not concluding that OTC is really involved in homosexuality affairs but just saying that it can be exploited to defame a rival unfairly. -

What has this got to do with homosexuality? If there is implication of involvement with a female teacher, the problem will be the same. Its a matter of personal conduct, not homosexuality.You all see the point?

The point is why we feel we are entitled to voyeurism or to take a holier than thou approach when we know nothing about the situation. Yes, maybe there is something in it. So what? We are all so perfect in our own daily conduct, we are entitled to throw brickbats and cast aspersions about public figures? Or is it just the tabloid mentality?WeiHan:

Belief in God is faith.
Belief in mortal is love, idolise,... blind faith
