NST 25/01: A parent has lodge a police report in Sungkai, Perak, against a Chinese school teacher for forcing her son to eat grass.
I was told that the parent is a Malay and the teacher involved is a Chinese and that the case is fast becoming a racial issue.
I believe this case is an isolated incident and hopefully the authorities could immediately defuse any potential irrational backlash from people who think it may got something to do with the race of the student and the teacher.
Just because a teacher of a certain racial background allegedly did something irrational to a student of a different race, doesn't mean it should be considered as a racial issue.
Everyone should maintain their cool in instances such as these.
Let the authorities investigate the case properly.
I have met several Chinese teachers of Chinese schools in the past and all of them are good people. None of them are like this Dong Zhong guy,
As it is with any institution, there will always be the bad apples among them.
To say that all Chinese teachers of Chinese schools are racist just because of this case is the same as when Pakatan people said all Umno people are corrupt. It is just simply wrong.
We must know how to sort out the bad from the good.
Otherwise, this multi-racial country will face a bleak future or no future at all.
Satu lagi modal politik bagi UMNO dan Ani untuk hentam si pendatang. Tingkatkan usaha mu Ani !

SUNGKAI: Two Year Four boys were made to wear bells around their neck and “offered” grass to eat as punishment for not doing their homework at a vernacular school here.
DeleteWorse, after the lesson was over, the pupils’ class teacher saw the boys and allegedly mocked: “Since when did I have two additional cows in my class?”
The 9am incident on Thursday allegedly happened at SJK (C) Khai Meng after both pupils were caned twice by their English teacher for not passing up their homework.
During recess time, the same teacher plucked grass and allegedly told the boys to eat it or get another 10 strokes of the rotan. The boys refused but were spared from further caning.
This was related by a mother and a guardian of the two 10-year-old boys at a press conference at a public hall in Taman Permai here yesterday.
One of the two boys, Muhammad Naswinder Muhammad Hamid, was also present.
His classmate, Mohd Izat Iqbal Mohd Harith, was said to be too distraught over the incident to talk to anyone.
Their families lodged police reports on the matter on Friday. The school’s headmistress Piong Yee Hsiang declined to comment and barred reporters from entering the school.
The 25-year-old teacher was said to have apologised but the families have called for him to be transferred out.
TRANSFERRING OUT IS INSUFFICIENT - HE MUST BE PUNISHED SO THAT HE WILL NEVER FORGET WHAT HE DID!
Anon 15.29 (a Chinese)
Like Alvivi, this 25 year old Chinese teacher has shamed his race.
DeleteA Chinese
A malay muslim teacher will never forced his/her pupil to eat grass. He/her know what is halal or haram.
ReplyDeleteThis so-called teacher must be someone who can't keep control over his/her emotions. Really unfortunate. Maybe a good idea to restrict her diet for 7 straight days to rice and kangkong only, and give her lots of sambal belacan! And then compel her to study Confucius and Buddha teachings for 70 months, and test her at the end; and observe her class behaviour for 7 years to make sure the right values have sunk into her otak and hati. May Allah forgive her for her stupid actions just as we seek His forgiveness for ourselves, poor fallible human beings.
DeleteAh so, let the lessons begin ......
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-A4DQ4sqKE
...but recently some muslim headmistress and teacher asked the murid-murid India balik india, and murid-murid cina balik China. Halal or haram ? Moreover there is no truth of a teacher asking the pupils to eat grass !
Delete@15:39 a number of Malay/Muslim teachers take advantage of their students (sexually) - just read the papers. I suppose since this is a Malay/Malay issue you think it's ok?
DeleteAnnie is right in that there are bad people of all races.
It looks like anon 15:39 dah terkena propaganda UMNO. Hey anon, no pupils are forced to eat grass in school okay. Go read from MM yourself and be smart, always.

How could he gives that shit when he himself eats too much shit. He must be full of shit when giving shit to his student. Shit Man, why so big thing about that shit and why don't he smokes the shit? Are you out of your shitting mind to smoke that shit. Shit, I don't mind smoking it. Are you shitting on me? By the way, the teacher belongs to a bunch of shit and they are the fools of shitting.

Tanjung Malim MP Datuk Seri Ong Ka Chuan said he has spoken to the school’s headmistress, who admitted that the pupils were asked to wear the bells around the necks. She said the teacher has apologised for the incident, and declined to comment further.
ReplyDeleteIni lah kebodohan kepemimpinan melayu. Cina senang-senang buat kurang ajar lepas tu minta maaf. Melayu terima dengan hati terbuka. Memang melayu sudah jadi bangsa layu!!
anon 17:57, tolong pergi buat laporan polis dengan segera !
Deleteanon 17:57, engkau jangan racist, memang cikgu tu salah, tapi bukan kerana bangsanya. Menteri Pendidikan Muhyiddin mesti ambil tindakkan supaya perkara seperti ni tak berulang lagi. Apa pulak cerita Kamalnathan yg ditumbuk oleh puak UMNO, dah selesai ke ?
DeleteMemnteri memang tak ambil tindakan punya.
DeleteBernama reported: "Tapah police chief Supt Som Sak Din Keliaw confirmed receiving the report from Yarnis and having the meeting as well.
"We had the meeting with both parties and the boys too. The school's headmaster and Batang Padang District Education officer were also here. The teacher admitted to punishing the boys but denied making them eat grass," he said in a statement here today.
Som Sak said investigations found that the teacher had punished the pupils for not doing their English homework for the past two weeks despite having potential in the subject.
"The teacher admitted his action and apologised. Both parties agreed to settle the matter amicably and the mother has left the matter to the District Education Office for further action," he said.
Everything is sensitive these days. I don't think it racial. As a teacher, even I get frustrated when my students regardless of race, doesn't follow instructions and do home work as indicated. And parents these days are not helping.
ReplyDeleteMarah sikit, anak balik mengadu, terus datang ke sekolah, marah cikgu. But anak tak buat kerja sekolah, tak pulak marah anak. Salah cikgu jugak.
Don't politicise this matter. Sebagai cikgu, this Chinese teacher probably feeling geram anak murid lalai buat kerja sekolah.
Jangan jadikan alasan feeling geram maka boleh menghina kanak-kanak? So many ways to punish pupils, that will not jatuhkan air muka.
DeleteYour blog really attracts lots of Red Bean Armies.
ReplyDelete.......and also pencacai UMNO.
DeleteBanyak cara nak hukum murid yang tak buat homework. But what the teacher did was purely to demoralize and hina orang Melayu. The psychological effect on the pupils will be devastating. They would develop inferiority complex due to being treated like cows. They would be laughing stocks to all the other Chinese pupils. Automatically the Chinese pupils would feel more superior. Alasan mereka tak buat homework maka boleh dihina sebegitu rupa adalah tipikal untuk menutup kesalahan.
ReplyDeleteKalau cikgu cina murid melayu, ok - settle.
DeleteKalau cikgu melayu murid cina, DAP pasti mengamuk.
Siapa racist?

ReplyDeletehow to f*** oneself ? Pls elaborate.
DeleteAnnie,
ReplyDeleteI have several friends who are teachers and we do occassionally discuss the education system. One area we have touched on is discipline and my understanding is that the government schools have very lax discipline but the vernacular schools are extremely strict.
The story is being sensationalised but it does not excuse the teacher for practising such medieval forms of punishment.
The Malaysian school system is badly broken if even a supposedly good school such as a Chinese vernacular school, actually thinks it is ok to employ such harsh antiquated methods of disciplining their students.
I cannot even be bothered to discuss whether the punishment is meted out fairly to any child regardless of race or religion. Such punishment should not exist in the first place!!
I know it is easier said than done but any good school system, government or vernacular, will do it's best to find other methods of dealing with misbehaving children.

I don't want it. I don't welcome it. But at the rate it is going things are going to blow up between the races.
ReplyDeleteIf you want to make it racial, it will be racial lor. While i dun agree with wat d teacher did, but worst things have been done than this la in Chinese schools. up to d parents wat they want to do. if d teacher only target the malay students, then it is really racist.
ReplyDeletesome parents say want stricter discipline, but when your kid kena cane, parents report to police and sue the school. last time my discipline teacher was a malay. if today, imagine how many police report he will get for all the chinese kids he caned.
Perpecahan, syak wasangka telah dan sedang berlaku... Malaysia lagi 20 tahun menuju kehancuran jika tidak ditangani skg.
ReplyDeleteAnother school incident. This time both perpetrator and victim are muslim.
ReplyDeleteMALACCA: A woman who went to meet her two children’s headmaster was nearly assaulted by a female security guard who was said to have been enraged by her dressing.
Marketing executive Fatimah Abdullah (pic), 28, from Desa Ria, Tangga Batu claimed the guard, in her 40s, had allegedly scolded her for wearing “tight” clothing. She also claimed the guard wanted to hit her before she was stopped by a teacher and a clerk.
She said the incident happened on Thursday when she was at the primary school to meet the headmaster to discuss the studies of her two children, aged 10 and eight.
“I was wearing my uniform at the time when I came at the office.
The guard, who was nearby, accused me of exposing my body for wearing a tight and revealing attire.
“I was surprised because I was not dressed indecently. She also told me to go home and change.
“I told her to mind her business and I went straight to the office.
“She dashed into the office and I believed that she wanted to hit me. However, she was stopped by the teacher and the clerk,” she added.
Fatimah, who lodged a report at the Tanjung Keling police station, said she also brought up the incident to the district education office.
There has been no response so far.
“I felt humiliated as the whole incident occurred in full view of teachers and staff.
“I am baffled by her behaviour as I was not wearing a mini-skirt or a bikini to school,” she said.
“My two children also felt ashamed as the incident had become the talk of the school,” she said.
