      Haircut boy's mother responds, says she's disappointed case highlighted



      The mother at the centre of a row over a teacher cutting her son's hair has said she is disappointed that the case was highlighted by Education Minister Heng Swee Keat.

      In his annual Work Plan Seminar speech last week, Mr Heng cited Madam Serene Ong's complaint to the police about a teacher who cut her son's hair as a reason teachers \"often feel anxious about dealing with demanding parents\".

      Responding, the 39-year-old sales manager told The Straits Times: \"Mr Heng didn't even speak to me to understand the entire situation.\"

      While it is fine to be criticised by netizens, it is not so when the minister does it, she said.

      http://www.straitstimes.com/breaking-news/singapore/story/haircut-boys-mother-responds-says-shes-disappointed-case-highlighted-2

      I can confirm that Serene Ong can make a police report against Minister HSK ..... :evil: :evil:


      Wah Piang!!!! HSK didn't speak to her to understand the entire situation??? ...
      语不惊人死不休!!!!


      Thought she already speak out so thunderously loud and in great detail to ST, Today, Yahoo news.... Guess everyone in Spore knew the story inside out...

      Aiyo Rxxx Axx fr Unity Pri is the name to watch out for in Secondary One next year..... thanks to his mum.

      Will he blow the chance at DSA if he applied for any?..... thanks to his mum.

      Hope other \"like-minded\" parents like his mum will think twice before they blow their top..... :evil:

        Another never-ending story.

        Moral of the story, don't use the media wrongly then it won't come back and haunt us. In the first place, when the case was reported to the police, how did the media \"get wind\" of it? Anyone knows?
        Coz it was smelly! 😆

          Question: Why does one find it acceptable to be criticized by netizen and not by a minister?

          if the minister criticise her over the internet should be fine :evil: :evil:[/quote] :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

            The prev Education Minister must be so relieved he is FREE of this portfolio.
            But if he stays on as Defence Minister (NEH), he will be the next one to get complaint by the SAME mother.
            So does this mean that if any minister wants to quote an example, do not mention names? :evil:

            the minister can telephone Serene Ong for permission

            Maybe the conversation can go like this, \"Mdm Ong, we have professional hair stylists in the SAF. I would like to inform you that any other hair stylist will not be able to conform to our standard.\"[/quote]
            :rotflmao: A sight to behold VK and Janet... Hmmm very clean exchange, no rubbish or trash :siam:

                    By Lee Wei Ling
                    I was both amused and perturbed when I read about Ryan, a student at Unity Primary School who had flaunted school rules by wearing his hair too long.

                    He had been instructed by his teacher to get a haircut. Though the teacher had reminded him daily, he failed to get a haircut.

                    And when the verbal instructions produced no results, the teacher gave him a letter to hand to his parents, informing them that their son needed a haircut. He did not hand the letter to his parents, and he did not get a haircut.

                    The day of his PSLE oral exams, his teacher, concerned that his untidy appearance may affect his appraisal, called him out of the class, together with two other boys with long hair. She explained her concern and asked them if she could give them a haircut. They all agreed. The teacher duly cut their hair.
                    So.. that is the background..

                    I support the teacher.. They should be grateful that the teacher cared so much and actually taken steps for the best interest of the students.
