My daughter, a first-year National University of Singapore (NUS) student, once told me a joke: What do NUS and Nanyang Technological University (NTU) students have in common? Answer: They all applied to NUS. I think she read it in NUSWhispers. After last...

She posted an Instagram Story about catching another student filming her in the shower, which resulted in Facebook posts by two ministers and a disappointing NUS town hall meeting on Thursday.

Who knew local university campuses are such popular locations for illicit amateur voyeur porn production? After all, we chose NUS even though we were aware of the sexualised freshmen orientation games scandal of 2016. The first was an April 21 e-mail from the NUS Students' Union Exco, saying that sexual harassment"is a serious community problem" and victims should report such matters to the school. The Exco added that if victims are told not to report, they should report that too.

NUS' penalties for sexual misconduct case were 'manifestly inadequate': Ong Ye KungSINGAPORE: Education Minister Ong Ye Kung said on Monday (Apr 22) the penalties applied by the National University of Singapore (NUS) in a sexual ... Absolutely. NUS only gives chance to offenders but who is to give chance to the victims who may suffer for life? It is no wonder there re many cases in NUS. NUS be responsible n put a stop to this! As was the punishment meted out by the Court. I'm seriously more concerned abt AGD's handling of the case than I am with NUS. The culprit will get away scot free if he does not get caught for the same crime within a year. How is that justice? Petty thieves get harsher penalties!! NUSingapore hv school of law or sumting rite? So all the textbooks, tests, thesis end up in the dean's ass? Hope this blot on such a 'prestigious' tertiary institution b impossible to erase so tat all parties concerned b shamed for being utterly useless!

He should be tried as an adult. Victims should be protected. Not made to feel shame. Why the need to include 'strong public interest' you mean if this was not on social media and not a sensation, you guys won't care? Wow.......... Glad I'm not a student at your school.
