Teacher pleads guilty to affair with 14-year-old student

Jia liat. Have sex with a minor. Sure kenna caning.

it is brave of the wife to expose the affair...many will not !

I hope he get 10 years jail term.. I pity the wife though.. ;(

Straits Times reported he had affairs with 2 students, 1 minor and 1 senior (above 16 yr old, no charge). This guy is a 2-timer. sorry 3 Timer, may be x timer.
He may hold VIP membership-card to Brothels.

Teenagers having sex is already very common in our schools. The only difference is that in this case it's comitted by a figure of authority. How about sex between teenagers that are both underaged. It is not any less serious to me. In fact it is more serious than needs more immediate attention as it is so common. How often does a teacher have sex with a student! it's just one case only. Events that are more frequent should be more urgently paid attention to. When teenagers have sex and the gal gets pregnant, is the young chap going to have the ability to support a family when he is not even 16 yet.

Hey becareful of swimming instructors for primary and secondary school kids. I heard a lot of molestation cases happening there. Especially primary school kids.

Was he giving private tuition or tuitioning his privates?

This is just the tip of the iceberg case that was reported. There’re many more sexual abuse cases still going on and remain in the dark.

This case, regardless with or without consent of the girl; is considered STATUTORY RAPE punishable with a jail sentence and caning. More so since the teacher is a male above 18 years old and below 50 years old which age range does not exempt caning as part of the punishment.
I don't see how the sentence can be any more lenient than the minimum already in place.

This lewdness wreaks dishonor to the teachers. It's very unfortunate for the future generations, hence we cannot anymore entrust to them our youngsters. Lascivious teachers is not worthy to be a mentor.

Few years ago , a FEMALE teacher committed the same act as this case, she was sack of course but the jail term was not as the one describe here and AWARE kept quiet about this

I see double standards here , and why AWARE did not fight for the same sentence which happened for the female teacher to be carried out for this case?

but dun get me wrong here, this man should be punished I am not siding this man), but the sentence to be carried out is diff , and that is the point I am trying to emphasize

Publish the teacher's face on the front News' page and put him to shame across the world....inorder to stop such nonsense to others.

The school should take 50% responsibility...for it's lack of supervison . Already issue warning yet still such things happens. Total failure.

There should not be any teaching job for him while serving prison terms. He should be given the the toughest job and should be given the maximum sentence and rotan for preying on a minor to set a precedent for future cases of this nature as so many cases of this nature had happened before and was now still happening.

The girl is underaged - it is the teacher who should have exercised restraint - instead he took advantage of his position - therefore the maximum punishment should be given

Why is this report not stating the Teacher's reason for having sex with the student? Why is this report not stating what the student's reason for agreeing having sex with the teacher? No doubt the teacher is wrong in having sex with the student. But is it true that the teacher seduced the student into having sex and not the student itself? Students nowadays are not as innocent as they are. No matter what the teacher is wrong and must be punished but what I am trying to say is that the student is at fault too. It takes 2 to clap hands not just 1 to have sex. Stop condemning teachers in every single mistake, does the public knows that every single time a case like this happens, teachers from ALL schools have to go through a serious and long hours of CONTACT TIME (MEETING) at school discussing about this case? Does the public knows how hard teachers work at school? Teachers are suffering from depression and extreme stress, and many teachers end up in divorce and some in mental hospitals in Singapore due to the terrible workload at school. What does this reported means by saying " They are tired of routine and want to seek something more thrilling and fresh". Why is it that the public cannot be more forgiving? Don't the school has responsibility here in installing cameras in school to monitor the school's situation? Doesn't the school have proper preventive measures? All schools have a book where teachers sign in and sign out for the keys to the special rooms like CCA rooms. The school personnel like the office manager has to check periodically that the keys are properly checked in and checked out.

YUCK! How can a teacher do this? He shamed the novelty of the prestigious occupation.

Isn't it statutory rape? Coupling with a minor.....death penalty,

After studying so much, his ass is still in his brains. Statuory Rape! Canning must not be spared. How a role model do such thing. Not the first time TEACHERS are involved. Must send the right signal.

Why the CCA Room no CCTV? Why Orchid Club never check the IDs of the couple? One 38 and one 13 of different surname/family? Orchid Club has become Hotel 81?

CCTVs should be installed at all rooms in schools.
