isn't it obvious that the teacher has lost his shit in order to cane student like that

people who has low EQ n professionalism like him is definitely unsuitable to be an educator

Rather kena cane now then kena belasah outside

You are right that if it leaves permanent scars then it's definitely a no no. However, if you look at the picture clearly, it's like a normal "rotan" session to me. Though the teacher should have cane the palm or buttocks, but sometimes you'll need to understand the teacher's point of view as well.

My question to you is, Have you ever thought children? How about those naughty ones? How about those rebellious ones? How about those who shouts at you? Those who spits at you? In a normal human being, you'll have your limits too. You can't expect a teacher to be a SUPERMAN!

I'm not a teacher myself but I have lots of teacher friends and I feel for them. Low pay, kena marah from parents for the smallest thing!!! Parents blame them when their kids do not do well in school, and lots more.

Teachers should be honored instead of criticize. I do agree that there are a few bad apple teachers out there but most of the teachers are making an effort to help the children. It's the parents who demands the teachers to educate and discipline them but they themselves don't do anything. Parents think money is KING. So, I give you lots of MONEY and I want the teacher to make my child like Einstein!

Here's an article of another who believes in caning - https://www.thestar.com.my/opinion/letters/...W3Zh6iTWa5gm.99

Sorry off topic but just a correction to everyone. My guru England cannot tahan anymore.

Canning = a method of preserving food in which the food contents are processed and sealed in an airtight container (tin)

Caning = Rotan

Child Act 2001

I support i am char siew, cause above vote don't have my actual opinion answer

I tend to agree. Because i am a old school person. I believe in punishment and scolding.

char siew have to be canned

owaiiii

All these account/people are closely related to the teacher.
They are here to defend the teacher to minimize the damage.
Even stoop low like politician to smear and public shaming a kid.

I wonder if this is the culture the education people trying to instill.
Not only you abuse your power, and not following SOP.
You are even worse than a politician. At least a politician wont go so low to shame a kid.

You have done wrong. Instead of apologize to the public, you public shaming the kid to justify your action.
If the person is rude, you can beat them up as you like in the name of discipline.
You can public shaming with personal info as you like to hide the fact that you broke the LAW by executing the punishment as you like, to satisfy your anger for the rudeness against you.

Sorry, got to disagree. This issue here got nothing to do with kesian teacher, teachers workload, etc. That is more to do with weakness of our whole education system.

The MOE have a guideline for punishing student including the use of rotan. I agree that teachers should be allowed to use rotan but it must be use in accordance with the guideline. The guideline is actually to protect teachers because if the teacher had referred the case to HM or Discipline teacher, there will not be any issue if the parents go and make noise.

Well... let's agree to disagree... It's not like whoever wins gets a RM 1 Mil! It's just differences in opinions which everyone is entitle to

What I don't agree is a lot of people demonize the girl until it is now more like a case of cyber bullying. Yes, the mother was wrong to viral the issue. Yes, the girl should be taught discipline and punished for being rude but we should not just past judgement on both the girl and mother base on her academic record or the video. I also believe that the teacher were just having a bad day and that is why he lost his judgement. Hence, he just need to go for some anger management counseling.

Actually if you look at Malaysian society nowadays, everyone gets triggered over a small thing.

Malaysians are becoming a rage society. True story!

Actually it is the same last time. The only difference is there were no social media for people to lash out their thoughts.

Both parties got wrong, but the one in the wrong the most is the mother.

Normal rotan mark only aso need to make polis report and viral it.

Last time i kene rotan until berdarah go home aso diam je, takut nanti cikgu phone my parents tell them. Then go home kene 1 round lagi.

You clearly fail to educate and teach you own kid proper manners, got wrong meh the teacher help teach ur guai lan lala kid some manners? Not like rotan leave permanent marks aso.

Puikk, sikit sikit nak bising.

Next time grow up sure become some whore.

I still remember my father personally told the teacher (in front of me) to just rotan me if I did anything wrong.

If you ask new gen parenting, they say its the wrong way to teach your child. The proper way is to reason with your child. Give them a sense of adult responsibility. Hence, call their parents by their first name. No problem!
