There was an infamous 'soaking' incident at SMK Bawang Assan, Sibu, Sarawak in which about 200 female students were forced by the warden to squat in a murky pond for one hour. The reason of the punishment was to punish the students who repeatedly clogged the toilets with their sanitary pads. This action or punishment has drawn nationwide condemnation and protests from ministers and parents.
Everyone of us had been a student before and me either, I personally think that the punishment was too harsh and could seriously demoralise the students as a human. I do agreed that sometimes teachers do feel pressured, a few perhaps reach a point where they feel like 'bursting'but she had acted outside the official guidelines. As a warden or teacher, he/she was supposed to protect and assist the students beside being a substitute parent and not instead abused the power.
Maybe nowadays teachers need to be well trained and even proper counselling in order to adopt the correct approach in dealing with indiscipline among the students. Don't you think so that teachers must set fine examples to fellow students?? They are all trained as a professional and should act professionally in tackling the problem of indiscipline among students.
What would the proper action to be taken against the warden?
