Chinese educationist quits after sex complaints

Chinese educationist Loot Ting Yee has quit his positions in various education groups following allegations of sexual harassment against him by a Sin Chew reporter. The said reporter had blogged about her complaints which have since become a controversy. The Sin Chew Daily and China Press, in their evening editions tonight, front-paged the story. The reporter has since taken her posting down from her blog, according to her colleagues. See The Star for more.

Loot, in his 80, has reportedly made a public apology and resigned from all posts. The allegations against the veteran leader of Dong Jiao Zong has shocked the Chinese community. Popularly known as Cikgu Loot, he was arrested under the ISA in 1987 but more recently, he has been vocal against the use of English to teach Maths and Science in vernacular primary schools.

Wong Chun Wai, editor of The Stars blogged the article above in his blog on last Sunday. He made a big mistake that mentions Loot was arrested under the ISA in 1987 where is no such things happened. Besides, he and Rocky, a journalist from one of the Malay's press try to relate the above issues with the current education system which i think is too 'politics' . Both of these are different. But they like to make it becomes more complicated and they are not ratinal analysis on the sexual harrasement. What is the inspiration from this issue? What is the point that some of the Wong's and Rocky's supporters try to criticized on Loot about he was the 'product' from Chinese education but they never worried about the discrimination between gender and identity in this community are growing up unhealthly.

Comment that I leave in Wong's blog :
I'm glad and feel proud that i'm Chinese educated. We never forgot over learning from school which is think twice before you talk! It seems like someone talk nonsense and the fact he gave are totally wrong.


Sexual harassment is a kind of social problem which happened all around the world. Since it happens in our community, we need find out the way for prevention. Most of the people will look in deep of the case and think rationally. While some people just try to relate the sexual harassment case with the current vernacular school system issues. It is so annoying! You are just one of the troblemaker. Some thought they are commentator but they just can come out with all rubbish!

I do not mean to hurt those who didn't study mandarin. I know there are always no 100% perfect in this world. At least, we know how to respect each other in order to live together with harmony. Why not our leader or those people who hold some higher positions understand it!?
