ur fault?Originally posted by Ito_^:sorry my fault -
u know what is the implication of all these words u type out and publish?

Sounds like normal disciplinary stuff to me. The VTech reference is kinda uncalled for too. There are worse sh|t in life than these trivial stuff in JC. Besides its only 2 years long. A blink of the eye and its over.

really?? i din noe that. well, aniwae, i dink that principal very poor thing. the other day, he was cleaning the study tables after a heavy rain. e vice principals supposed to get students to clean...but i heard that they went to have their lunch instead..den he had to clean them himself =\Originally posted by club18:lol.. ya, i noe.. i was hoping no1 would expose the sch's name..

it's damn naive for your friend to change class just because she wants to be with her friends. if your friend cant be with her friends in class but still in the same school, does it matter a lot?
i know a lot of peeps stay in jj, because of their friends, not because they cant leave jj. and i know a lot of peeps in last year's a level batch who got 10 pts and below for L1R5 ended up screwing up their A levels. and one of the retainees for j2 this year was an 8 pointer. he could have jolly well gone to ac or nj, but just because of his friends he stayed. -
I think changing class,sch etc for friends are a pure bullshit BULLTSHIT and UPRIGHT LOUSY excuse, your not very smart if u do that
Loyalty?
To whom?
Your friends?
Would they provide you education? Money? NO!!
HAVE SOME LOYALTY TO YOURSELF AND PARENTS
Im in poly now, not because i CANT enter Jc, is i choose NOT to. Many of my closest friends are in JC, JJC even, do i choose to go there? For what if i dont want?
Crème de la Crème?

damn.. online crackdown.. -
I too am a student of JJC,
Our principal did use the word "Gang", but i believe that he did not meant it as intended. After his speech, one of the teachers talked to our class. She was supportive of Mr Koh instead of being ashame or infuriated. She felt that what the principal was doing was just trying to bring across the message of disbanding groups that are non-productive or could possibly affect the students' studies.
One reason why he mentioned the indian group "in that corner" is because there were two retainees who were there. They flouted most of the rules in the school and were keeping long hair/moustaches/beards ect.
One of them had actually owed money due to the Soccer World Cup, and the principal graciously loaned him amounts up to the hundreds so he could focus on his studies and his A'Levels. But he ended up failing his A'levels instead and became a retainee.
Therefore, i believed that the principal specially picked out this group as he felt that it would affect the indian students' studies if they had picked up bad habits. Also because of their personal relation between one of the retainee and the principal, i believe the principal had more attention on this group.
Next would be his habit of walking into classes and catching students. That i would disagree with, because it interrupts the teacher's lessons. But i do question whether teachers actually do catch students for inappropriate haircuts/facial hair ect. Even my teacher turns a blind eye to our class. So what makes you think that without his intervention, the male students in our school would keep neat and short hair, and to display a good image for our school? -
wah

im not saying he can read minds or anything, nor am i defending him. in fact what he said that day was quite controversial to the college (stunned looks everywhere, including me). this thread is pretty much bout TS's views on principal, so just my 1 cent views on my past encounter with him.Originally posted by club18:wow.. u created an account just to defend ur principal?
thats really noble of u..
but then if wat TS said was true, dun u think its rather dumb to base ur defense on that mr koh can read students mind against racist allegations?
perhaps its not right to justify that he's intelligent with such a minor example. though many of us think we can, its not really easy to come up with a question to stump someone in 2 seconds. well if you believe you can do it as well then i've nothing to say. im just saying that there may be some things we can learn from the principal. -
TYS u put this in ur blog u will kena eh..
ppl like will forward ur blog den u will kena own by principal or sometin like tt
n raied... u jjc meh? i tot saw u in np? -

The issue here is that the principal, TARGETED and ISOLATED a certain RACIAL group, and expressing his dislike(or whatever) against them, doesnt matter what a person in the group did. -
everyone knows all JC principals in sg are racist and practices favoritism.

DUDE! This is not on the topic of intelligence whatsoever. You justifying his intelligence is already out of point. As i said in my previous post, this is the issue of him(the principal) ISOLATING a RACIAL group.Originally posted by jinyidakiddo:im not saying he can read minds or anything, nor am i defending him. in fact what he said that day was quite controversial to the college (stunned looks everywhere, including me). this thread is pretty much bout TS's views on principal, so just my 1 cent views on my past encounter with him.

Why cant student stand in a principal perspective and see what went wrong?
Students nowadays are abusing their so-called 'rights'. Working with ppl who got more 'rights' than him puts him in disadvantage. May I know what rights does a principal have now? -
I'm a JJC student too. I do not like the frequency at which he mentions "I will expel you; I will sack you; I will deport you; I will fire you". He may mean them as threats or perhaps not, but I certainly do take them as threats. Plus, we are debating this as a person, a citizen of Singapore. Not student against principal.
And regarding the "voluntarily causing harm" thing, if I interpreted it correctly, what the person who posted it is trying to say that it is voluntary when the principal hit the chinese student, therefore it is not a crime. Penal code 92 mentions that it is an offense to voluntarily cause hurt for any other purpose other than to prevent death or hurt. Therefore, it is a crime for the principal to hit a student unless it can bring the student back from the brink of death. Then again, you may mean something else.
My personal opinion is that he should change the way he does things. Then again, this is just my 10 cents, my 2 cents is free. -
And regarding the intellectual thing, if he had been that intellectual, he would have intelligently avoided such a controversial comment that many students of all races felt was racist.
The impression that his speech left on me was that: I do not like the Indians, I do not want to see them together again. These are far from the exact words, but it is the impression that it left on me.
I do question many of the things the principal does. I even have doubts on how JJC attained the good pupil development award (something like that). The way i see things, the 'leaders' are forced to impression guests. Behind that curtain are multitudes of threats.
Then again, these are just one person's views. It should not be taken as information agreeable to everyone.
