BTW, when you say ''higher authority'', are you referring to the ''POLICE''? :scared: :yikes:

If principal dowan to listen, then complain to cluster superintendent. if superintendent dowan to listen, then complain to MP. If MP cannot resolve the matter, then complain to minister. If minister cannot resolve the matter.......

remember, don't be like Lee Hsien Loong's son, who in NS faced a situation he was not happy with, and then he email minister of defence, chief of SAF, chief of army, chief of air force, commanding officer, etc etc...

:yikes: :yikes: :yikes:

Heyya all

Very good views and sound advice fm you guys!! :thankyou:
On hindsight, I shld not hv brought the matter up to P, it was foolish of me. I never knew that dealing with school is a different ball game altogether, afterall my background is corporate. Besides, don't organizations including hospitals and the govt emphasized on customer service?!?!
Take KK Hospital for e.g. They will give you a feedback form at every dept, whether it's @ the customer service dept or at the doctor's office!!
Another recent e.g.. wld be Singtel. To appease EPL viewers for the glitches, they are waiving one mth's fee! That says alot abt customer service.
Then talk abt our govt, aren't they also trying to connect with the citizens, trying to appease the people?? :?
I agree wif some of you that I shld just rest this case as it is considered quite petty.
However, I feel very strongly that parents shld not be held ransom by the schools and a movement shld be started to break this autonomy.
Any takers? :please:

Err boringmum,

You are not boring us with your message, rather you're confusing us with it. To me, your post above is contradictory. You started off in a reconciliatory tone claiming foolishness and pettiness if you continue to pursue this case; yet in your last sentence you seem to be trying to garner support to pursue the case. So what is it you're trying to express? :scratchhead:

Cannot raise a big hoo-ha bcos child is still in school and we parents cannot afford him/her to have a 'high profile'. Even if it is the President or emperor, he cannot do whatever he wishes....people are watching.
Several years ago, there were these 2 boys who behaved badly. They were openly defiant and when other residents of the condo asked them to behave, they asked them, 'do you know who my father is?' Their father is the chairman of the condo committee. But then, so what ?

Oh p,ease, chairman of management council is there to serve, it is a volunteer work. Also is an elected position that many people rather not do. What is there to hao lian? Chey

Precisely..if one can be voted in, he can also be kicked out...which was what happened to these boys' father. Chairman of condo committee only what. Even chairman of a company also has to report to shareholders.
Sometimes, parents have to teach kids not to be 'showy'. Wonder if LHL taught his son to be humble :scratchhead:

maybe his son complained because in the end, his dad LHL still have to handle.

His son would have special attention as well as the other lucky ones sharing the same bunk as him. For our ministers, I guess they do hope their offspring do not embarrass them as news spread fast. Has Junior Lee finished his NS? If not his daddy would have migraine with his behavior. Once he is done, better send him to U overseas.
